Chapter 195 Even a Mourning Dog Has Nostalgia
Xu Weixiong did not look different at Li Chun Gang’s compliments, looking at Xu Feng Nian, he asked, “Is there any meal on board? In order to block you on the road, I rushed a bit and delayed lunch, counting up you owe that gang a meal.”
Xu Fengnian nodded and said, “This is no problem, there are many freshly caught river food stored in the boat.”
Just after saying that, Qing Bird went to order the cooks and waiters to labor. Xu Weixiong turned around and got off the boat to bring the twenty or so Jixia scholars onto the deck, these old and young scholars seemed to be a bit formal, only a few military scholars took the initiative to come forward to greet His Highness the Prince. The family has long since ceased to exist, now the empire is in full swing, many doctrines are difficult to cover up the decline of all the horses, only on the Yin Palace struggling to support, sheltering the world’s poor, for future generations to stay in the reading seed, but unfortunately, the Palace is a private school, in terms of financial resources, is far less than the emperors and ministers pouring money into the gift of the State Children’s Eunuchs to be broad, the Palace in Spring and Autumn, there are still the great valves and families to fund the Palace, and now one by one, the high walls of the Zhu Men have been turned into a broken wall, it’s the Nowadays, all the high walls have become broken walls, and they are more and more in need of money, therefore, except for the sons and daughters of military families who have studied the wars of different dynasties, most of the Jik Shang and Jizhi Bachelor are naturally ill-feeling towards the Beiliang Xu family.
At lunch, Xu Fengyen and his second sister Xu Weixiong intentionally avoided the crowds and opened a small stove, Xu Fengyen wolfed down his food, Xu Weixiong chewed and swallowed slowly, the two personalities were clearly differentiated, Xu Fengyen knew that she didn’t like to talk during meals, so he opened the book case to himself and saw a few bags of soil, probed his hand and pinched it, sniffed, frowned, carefully put it into his mouth and tasted it, shocked, and asked:” This dragon sand is that Taoist cave blessed earth lung mountain dug up? It is dragon sand, but the flavor is not quite the same as what old brother Yao Jian said. Why does it feel like the path is a bit incorrect?”
His Royal Highness often went to the Beiliang mountain range to look for dragons and acupoints with his second sister and Yao Jian, and he learned by ear, and he also knows something about feng shui, three years of searching for dragons and ten years of acupoints, Xu Fengyen didn’t have that decades as one day in order to hard work out of the skills, but the basic recognition of the dragon vein trend is still quite sloppy, to see how a dragon comes out of the body peeling for walking and opening the account over the gorges, and then to the bundle of gas into the head of the knot, which are barely able to recognize a seven or eight, digging a dragon, and the dragon is not a dragon, but it is a dragon. Recognize a seven or eight, digging dragon sand in fact and farmers digging asparagus is a reason, the test is nothing more than experience and know-how, Xu Weixiong is the road everyone, Xu Fengyen can only be a mistake to harvest, but to the hands of the dragon sand texture and quality of how, or some of the strength of the eyes, the box of the dragon sand has a size of six or seven bags, most of which have been stamped book burned, Xu Fengyen picked up a bag of tasting, but also to take the word of the yellow runic symbols of the three Indian knot Sealed, “three Qing dynasty” “eight heavy ice plum” “out of the clouds saddle horse”, confirmed, is from the second sister Xu Weixiong’s hand, because this sealing book is very delicate, Dan Fu regulations, must be with the The earth person’s birth date and eight characters match, and then any shovelful of dragon sand out of the ground is not a small matter, no matter whether it is the Taoist dragon priest or the green bag master geography home, can not trespass on the dragon sand, especially after the reunification of the court explicitly ordered any dragon sand out of the ground to Chongxuan Department and the QinTianSupervision of the two large number of documents allowed, but in the last 20 years there is no precedent for any one time permitted, XuWeiXiong undoubtedly with the court law against the law, but XuFengNian lazy care about the minutiae. But Xu Fengnian is too lazy to care about such details, just curious about how the Earth Lung Mountain, which has been the crown of the Cave Heaven since ancient times, can produce an evil dragon? It must be known that the ranking of heavenly paradise, even the Taoist court Longhu Mountain is countless times worse than the Earth Lung Mountain, but for hundreds of years, the Earth Lung Mountain has been an ungovernable place without a great real person to cultivate, counting on the fingers, since the previous dynasty closed the mountain, there have been five hundred years.
Xu Weixiong put down his chopsticks and sighed softly, ”This trip to assess the Jixi Bachelor’s qi gazing kung fu is just a front. There is a new evil dragon in Earth Lung Mountain, and Priest Wang projected that it is related to Longhu Mountain, which is in the same lineage as Earth Lung Mountain, only to be suppressed by Heavenly Master Zhao Danping, so that the Qin Tian Supervisor didn’t turn on the imperial court.”
Xu Fengnian’s face clouded over at this, gritting his teeth, “It must be that Zhao Huang Chao’s mischievous tactics of stealing the sky and changing the sun! Sister, if it’s really as I guessed, this matter Qin Tian Supervisor wouldn’t dare to care at all!”
Xu Weixiong was puzzled.
Xu Fengyen laughed, got up and said, “Come, come, sis, help you wash your hair, talk while you wash.”
Xu Weixiong did not refuse, Xu Fengyen let the door outside the green bird to bring a basin of hot water and a jade pancreas, poor people wash their hair are cheap and rough soap horn, rich and noble families to be much more sophisticated, pancreas in the grinding of powdered pearls, it is called jade pancreas, Xu Fengyen held his second sister’s soft and smooth silken hair, his eyes were warm, softly, said: “one night in Kuanglushan Mountain, I seem to dream, not a dream, I saw my mother! I saw my mother, who came with a white python to protect my son, who is not good. That look is only a middle-aged Taoist Zhao Huang Chao, said on the mouth is practicing in Longhu Mountain, in all likelihood, is the capital of the old ancestor, ride the black dragon out of the body of God, the rows set up lawlessness, said to be on behalf of heaven. Coincidentally, the other day in Huishan Daxueping a reader called Xuanyuan Jingcheng into the Confucian saint realm, I will corner with the old sword god asked some of the rules of the celestial beings, know that the Taoist door in the longevity of the great real people, their own condensation of luck, can not be easy to come out to interfere with the mundane world of functioning, Zhao Huangchao’s hand, more or less contrary to the reasoning of the Taoist religion, the Taoist is certainly a celestial out of the body aftermath of the transfer of the mountain of the earth lungs of the mountain of the Lord of the Unknowns, or it is equivalent to With the Longhu Mountain Tianshifu knot Liang, and the movement is too big, also does not accord with him when the shrinking turtle style of action. I just don’t understand, we Beiliang obviously won’t have enough to rebel, what is this Zhao Huang Chao worried about?”
Xu Weixiong calmly said, “Of course, he is worried that their Zhao family has no way to secure the kingdom forever.”
Xu Fengyen snorted, “Which dynasty can be passed on for millions of generations? Who really lives to be a thousand years old when they say “Long live the Son of Heaven, Long live the Empress”? Don’t worry about carrots!”
Xu Fengyen said grimly: “With this Taoist priest’s realm, isn’t it standing in a latrine without taking a shit if he doesn’t ascend? It’s only in Longhu Mountain, if it was in Northern Liang, one would have to pull 10,000 iron horsemen to crush this old bastard into pieces.”
Xu Weixiong tilted his head, the corners of his mouth hooked up as he laughed with one eye open and one closed, “Toad yawning, you have a big mouth. Not to mention whether or not a Daoist of that celestial realm can be killed, let’s say you can command ten thousand iron horsemen right now? Let’s not talk about 10,000, let’s say 1,000, can you do it?”
After washing his hair, Xu Fengyen picked up a silk scarf to gently wipe Xu Weixiong’s hair, the two sat down, His Highness the son of the good man to the end, to help her comb her green silk, for the second sister’s sarcasm and ridicule, a look of shamelessness, a rogue behavior, hehehe laughed: “Borrowing troops from Chen Zhi Bao Dian Xiong Animal these heroes, of course, is asking for a bad time, but there is still Fatty Chu, can not do, borrow it with Yuan Zuo Zong Yao old brother to borrow.”
Xu Weixiong asked with a smile on his face: “Are you sure that Yuan Zuozong and Yao Jane will lend you? Aren’t you afraid that Xu Snapdragon will be punished by military law? You know that regardless of affinity, as long as we violate the military rules in Beiliang, we have to act according to the law, when killed, killed, when tortured, tortured.”
Xu Fengnian is still not in a proper form, “Yao Lao brother is the temperament of the dead, it is not easy to say, but Yuan Zuozong’s words, there is really an emergency, this 1,000-2,000 troops, fee some spittle, may really be able to be borrowed to my hand.”
Xu Weixiong asked, “Are you sure?”
Xu Fengnian nodded, “Sure.”
Xu Weixiong took the rosewood comb and laughed softly, “You’ve only had a few drinks with Yuan Zuozong, and you think your friendship is so good that you’ve reached this point? You should know that Yuan Zuozong’s eyes can’t be rubbed with sand, with him and Chu Lushan are both Xu Snapdragon’s righteous sons but they are like water and fire it is obvious that you, this anointed kid’s playboy frame, confident that you can enter Yuan Baixiong’s eyes?”
Xu Fengyen bristled and said, “Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”
Xu Weixiong tsked and said the opposite, “It’s really disappointing that you didn’t have a big fight at Longhu Mountain.”
Xu Fengnian shook his head, “The commotion is not small, by the way, that Xuanyuan Jingcheng who relied on reading to read out a land immortal has some cultivation tips, not very useful to me at the moment, reading is the same as not reading, turn around and you take it. There is also a “morality forbidden thunder spell” was I secretly picked up, you also take to think about it, his mother’s Xuanyuan Jingcheng in the big snow on the Ping led to countless thunder, that battle, a little bit than when a general leading a few thousand iron cavalry to inferior, this way I checked many Taoist refining classics, the feeling is not as practical as this “morality forbidden thunder spell”, the “Fengdu Edict Ghosts Mantra” and the twenty-four steps of the Longhu Mountain talisman in the “Cave Abyss Shen Mantra scripture seems to be on the side of esoteric, godly, not very practical, I studied for half a month could not see how to spell mountain collapse spell water water open, this forbidding thunder mantra, it is really like according to the book records cultivation to the extreme, can be like Xuanyuan Jingcheng that borrow the heavenly phenomenon of heavenly power, but it is a pity that I practiced the sword, not in this way, sis, you are omnipotent anyway, this forbidding thunder mantra or you take it? By the way, I’m in Longhu Mountain with the old master Zhao Xituan research talisman will be red armor cloud pattern talisman by the way checked, refining into the spell seems to be the earliest from the ancient barbaric land where the Shangyin Palace of Learning is located, maybe the Palace of Learning there will be a solitary book you need, and then in accordance with the platform of forbidden thunder spell, I help you from Longhu Mountain to go along with a few Lei Department of the secret talisman, probably some of the attraction of the Ministry of Lei Tianxiang and the divine martial arts of the mnemonic, would have been the old master’s statement, Longhu Mountain, the Dragon Tiger Mountain, the Dragon Tiger Mountain, the Dragon Tiger Mountain and the Dragon Tiger Mountain, the dragon and the dragon and the dragon and the dragon and the dragon. Heavenly Master’s words, Longhu Mountain successive ascension of real people, will leave the essence of the recipe in the Dragon Pond manifestation, but unfortunately these treasures I do not have the ability to help you steal, and, that female tiger kui, nicknamed the Bodhisattva, called the King Kong that I have given to the yellow barbarians, the Bodhisattva to send you, or else you all day long in the Palace where all walks are full of benevolence and righteousness and morality, think of it is strange and boring … … …”
His Highness rambled on endlessly.
Xu Weixiong interrupted Xu Fengyen’s ramblings and laughed, “I’ve been given all the good stuff, what are you going to do with yourself?”
Xu Fengyen froze for a moment, smiled and pointed to the double knives on his waist, and rightfully said, “What’s the use of me wanting those external things, having Spring Thunder Embroidery Winter is enough.”
Xu Fengnian saw his second sister silent, knowing that she didn’t like the fact that she practiced knives to be a martial artist, so he changed the topic and asked, “Today I saw the famous Jixi Bachelor of the Shangyin Academy Palace with my own eyes, and realized that there seem to be a lot of poor people as well?”
Xu Weixiong smiled and said, “The scholar’s book travels to study, the ranger hangs up his sword and travels, is nowadays the two major trends, the former began with Zhang Laofu Zi traveling around the world. Just suffering those who have clearly the family way down the poor and cold clan, in order to face, or very concerned about the heir and the crown after the book travel, which do not hesitate to put together, you think ah, the weak scholar travel, good or bad at least least there are a few hundred miles away, there has to be a wait for food, clothing, housing and transportation of the cadet, coupled with a familiar with the world’s conditions of the old servant, the three expenses, not to let the small gateway to the family racked his brains? So some of the fact that has long been no different from the cold family of the scholarly family, the so-called book tour, do not dare to hope to travel thousands of miles, but only in a state to go a few counties, try to visit a few masters and masters, and they drink tea on the road, that is, the end of the matter. Many readers where the family, in order to be able to enter the Palace of Yin, at the expense of the family fortune, I this line of the lungs, the team has a stayed outside the Palace of eighteen years to be able to pass the examination of the Jixi Bachelor, is more than fifty years old, usually teach him to teach Mr. Jixi on the Jixi, most of them are younger than him, in order to save up to buy a few more books of the sages, all year round, just ate steamed buns and salted vegetables, so on the Yin Palace of learning! It’s not as useless as you originally envisioned, to be able to enter the Shangyin Academy Palace, not to ask about morality, but only to say that the talent is not bad.”
Xu Weixiong stretched out his hands and pinched Xu Fengyen’s cheeks, tugged and laughed, “It seems like the two excursions have benefited you greatly. I’m thinking if I should persuade you to go to North Mang again.”
Xu Fengyen was dumbfounded, “Sister, you really think so?”
Xu Weixiong increased her force and said, “Since I can’t stop you from practicing your sword, plus it seems like you’re not just practicing your sword to develop your limbs, it would be unreasonable for me to stop you again. But in advance, since you want to practice sword, at worst you have to practice a land god, right? It’s been centuries since anyone has made it this far.”
Xu Fengyen grimaced bitterly and vaguely said, “Sister, why don’t you practice sword training to produce a sword immortal?”
Xu Weixiong let go of his hand and smiled with narrowed eyes, “Sister is a woman, fighting and killing is not ladylike.”
Xu Fengnian helplessly said, “Sister, you are really reasonable.”
Xu Weixiong got up and said, “Let’s go, since I’ve made up my mind not to stop you from practicing your sword, I won’t stop you from going to Wudi City, just be careful yourself.”
Xu Fengyen walked out of the cabin with his second sister, and it so happened that there was a poor old scholar looking at the river from a rail nearby, muttering, “This bereaved dog of mine has nostalgia too.”
