Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 255

Let’s say that when Zhou Yu and Monkey King came to Yunzhan Cave quietly, they found that Zhu Bajie was planting vegetables with Gao Cuilan and Qing’er on the slope outside the cave.

The three of them talked and laughed, looking happy and happy.

Seeing this, Monkey King looked puzzled: "No, looking at Miss Gao, she doesn't look like she was taken captive."

"Well, it seems that she enjoys such a life."

"This old pig actually married a wife and lived a happy life?"

Sun Wukong actually knew the identity of Zhu Bajie, and he also knew that this guy would accompany Tang Seng to the West to learn scriptures.

Only Tang Seng is still in the dark.

"If not, test him first."

"Alright."

Sun Wukong transformed into a Taoist priest and walked over.

"Hey, Zhu Ganglu, you've got something to do, you've got a big deal to do!"

Zhu Bajie was stunned for a moment, then furious, grabbed the nine-toothed rake and walked over murderously.

"Where is this junior, dare to come to Lao Zhu's territory to play tricks?"

"Zhu Gangli, you took over the mountain as king and kidnapped Miss Gao's family. Now, Mrs. Gao asked me to come and surrender you!"

"Master, don't do anything..."

At this time, Gao Cuilan hurried forward.

"Mage, listen to me, I am not taken captive, I followed him willingly."

"Willingly? I don't believe it, it must be this old pig who forced you, right? Miss Gao, don't be afraid, with me...with the poor Dao here, I will definitely be able to subdue this old pig."

"He didn't force me, really..."

"Then let me ask you, do you know his identity? This guy is a pig demon."

"Fart!" Zhu Bajie objected.

Although he devoted himself to being a pig fetus, he didn't want to mention it in front of Gao Cuilan, but brought up the glory of the year.

"My old pig was the grand marshal of the fairy world back then, commanding tens of thousands of Tianhe soldiers."

Sun Wukong laughed loudly: "You also said, that was back then. You violated the rules of heaven, were demoted to the mortal world, and cast into a pig fetus..."

With this smile, the monkey suddenly revealed.

Zhu Bajie seems to be in a daze, but his heart is bright.

In a flash of inspiration, he guessed the identity of Monkey King: "So it's you, the monster monkey..."

Being seen through by Zhu Bajie, Sun Wukong also pretended to be lazy, and returned to his original form, shouting: "Hey, idiot, give me a stick from my grandson."

"Don't hit, don't hit..."

With red eyes, Gao Cuilan rushed to Zhu Bajie to stop her.

"This Shangxian, my husband really didn't force me, I followed him voluntarily."

Qing'er also stepped forward to intercede and told the reason why the lady left.

"Huh? You mean, some kind of expert wants to deal with the old pig?"

"Yes, I heard it clearly when I was outside."

At this time, Zhou Yu stepped forward and whispered to Sun Wukong: "It seems that there is something else hidden about this matter, I think the other party will not give up, and most likely they will come to you.

Why don't we just plan and wait here for a day, and if the other party doesn't come, we will come to the door. "

"Alright..."

Afterwards, Sun Wukong went back to Gao Laozhuang again, assuming that the old pig was a bit powerful, he went back to greet him first, and then went to fight.

Tang Seng believed it was true, and said: "Then you must be careful."

"know."

That night.

A figure sneaked out of Yunzhan Cave.

Just as he was about to enter the cave incognito, a cold snort suddenly came from behind him: "What? Are you looking for the old pig?"

The person who came was startled, hurriedly floated aside, and then replied with a hideous look: "It seems that you have been prepared, but you still have to die."

"Oh? So loud? Did you ask my old grandson?"

Monkey King jumped out.

The black figure was taken aback, and his eyes turned into a wisp of black smoke, trying to escape.

It seems that he also knows that Sun Wukong is not easy to provoke.

"boom!"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu also appeared suddenly, and knocked the opponent back to his original shape with a palm.

"What kind of monster is this?"

Seeing that the opponent turned into an extremely ugly monster again, Monkey King couldn't help frowning.

He was once under the demon king, but he really didn't know the origin of the demon in front of him.

But Zhou Yu understood that these extraterritorial monsters were already moving around.It is estimated that he was not sure about confronting the gods and Buddhas in the sky head-on, so he broke up the whole thing and made troubles in all directions.

"Boom boom boom..."

Soon after, a big battle started.

I have to say that this monster is indeed very powerful, so it's no wonder that he dared to boast that he killed Zhu Bajie.

In fact, this is to underestimate Zhu Bajie.

Zhu Bajie seems to be useless on weekdays, he can't even beat a few little monsters, it's because he likes to play boring.

Although his strength is not as good as that of Monkey King, the gap is not that great. In a life-and-death struggle, Monkey King would have to spend a lot of effort to defeat Zhu Bajie.

Now, with Zhou Yu, Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie surrounded, how could this monster have a chance to escape?

Not long after, it was smashed by Monkey King with a stick.

Zhou Yu stepped forward and raised his palm with a burst of real fire, which was burnt to nothingness.

However, Zhu Bajie did not stop there, ran to arrest Na Atuo, and returned to Gao Laozhuang together with Gao Cuilan.

Needless to say the next thing.

After offending Zhu Bajie, can Ah Tuo have something good to eat?
Zhu Bajie also co-acted in a scene, pretending to clean up Tang Seng and Gao Taigong...

Avalokitesvara appeared at the right time...

In this way, Zhu Bajie became the second junior brother, and Monkey King became the elder brother.

When Tang Monk, master and apprentice left, Zhou Yu did not leave.He found two more talented teenagers in Gao Laozhuang, and they taught Confucian knowledge in the name of enlightenment.

Soon after, he returned to Chang'an City.

When Zhou Yu came to Chang'an City, he naturally wanted to promote Confucianism.

Relatively speaking, Datang is much more open. At this time, there are many scholars who are more bloody and like to travel around the world.

Therefore, Zhou Yu believed that it would be much easier to promote Confucianism here.

The Guozijian of the Tang Dynasty set up six schools, namely: Guozixue, Taixue, Menxue, Shuxue (calligraphy), Shuxue (arithmetic), and Luxue (law).

Aims at cultivating diverse talents.

Moreover, these six schools all recruit students from other countries who came from outside the Tang Dynasty, allowing the culture of the Tang Dynasty to spread to all parts of the world.

This is also the reason for the prosperity of Datang.

Therefore, under such a big environment, Zhou Yu believed that he would be able to accomplish a lot.

He didn't take care of other things last time, so he has to plan carefully this time.

On this day, he suddenly found a young scholar on the street. At first glance, he seemed to be the kind of talented person who was rare in a hundred years.

It's just that, with a preoccupied look, he almost bumped into someone while walking a few times.

So, with a thought, Zhou Yu went to a place where no one was around, transformed into an old man, and then went to "touch porcelain" head-on.

"oops……"

"Old man, are you alright?"

"Oh, my waist is probably broken..." Zhou Yu pretended to be in pain.

The scholar didn't dare to help, squatted down and asked eagerly: "I'm really sorry, this junior didn't do it on purpose..."

After a while, I asked again: "Old man, is it still hurting?"

"Feeling better now."

"The junior will help you find someone to have a look and see where the injury is."

"No, no, it's an old problem. You can find a place, help me rest for a while, and maybe drink a few sips of water and I'll be fine."

"That's it...how about going to the junior's house, which is not far ahead..."

"It's okay, I'll give birth after work."

"I'm ashamed, if the junior was not careful, I wouldn't let the old man fall..."

In this way, Zhou Yu followed the scholar to a small courtyard in an alley.

On the way, the scholar introduced him. His name is Wu Yongchuan, and he is a student of the Imperial Academy.

"So you're the supervisor of the Imperial College? You're amazing. I wonder what subject you're studying?"

"The old man won the award, and the junior studied at the Imperial College."

"Oh, then you must be very knowledgeable."

"The younger generation is still learning, but in fact the younger generation is also influenced and spurred by my brother..."

"Oh? Your brother is also a scholar?"

When this matter was mentioned, Wu Yongchuan's face became gloomy, and he didn't answer.

"What's the matter, young man?"

"It's okay... slow down, old man."

It seems that Wu Yongchuan doesn't want to mention this matter again.

Zhou Yu didn't bother to ask.

After entering the courtyard, Zhou Yu looked around. The courtyard was not big, but it was well-decorated and cleaned.

"Old man, I will help you to sit inside the house."

"No, no, just sit here." Zhou Yu pointed to the stone table in the courtyard.

"This... well, I will ask Liu Er to lift the chair out... Liu Er, Liu Er..."

"coming."

A girl about fifteen or sixteen years old came out in response.

"Liu'er, hurry up and lift the chair out..."

"Okay, Second Young Master."

After the chair was lifted, Liu'er looked at Zhou Yu curiously, and said, "I'm going to make tea."

"Ah."

After a while, a woman in a plain white dress came out.

It seems that Huaxin is around the age of Huaxin, with a pretty face and a graceful figure, quite a ladylike charm.

"sister in law……"

Wu Yongchuan stepped forward to greet him.

Then he recounted what happened before.

"I accidentally knocked the old man to the ground and helped him back to rest for a while."

When the woman heard this, she hurried forward to salute, and apologized, "Old man, I'm really sorry, did you get hurt anywhere?"

Zhou Yu smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, it's okay, just rest for a while."

"Yong Chuan, be careful when you walk in the future, fortunately the old man doesn't care..."

The woman turned her head and scolded.

"Yes." Wu Yongchuan replied.

"Old man, where is your home? If it's not far away, my concubine will ask Liu Er to notify me, so as to save your family from worrying."

Zhou Yu shook his head: "There is no one at home."

"Ah? The old man...alone?"

"That's it."

At least, in this world, Zhou Yu is alone, and his wife is in another world.

"Then... Liu'er, go and make some food for the old man."

"No, no, you're welcome, I'll be fine after a short rest."

After chatting for a while, Zhou Yu chatted about some allusions intentionally or unintentionally.

At first, Wu Yongchuan didn't care, and even responded perfunctorily.

As a result, the topic got deeper and deeper, and Wu Yongchuan's face became serious, including that woman Qi'er.

Needless to say, Wu Yongchuan, to enter the Guozijian, he must either be a son of a powerful person or an outstanding student.

And Qi'er, who has read poetry and books since she was a child, is as knowledgeable as a man.

Hearing Zhou Yu's chat, he was so clear-headed and all kinds of allusions came at hand, he couldn't help being surprised.

I thought, this is an ordinary old man, but it turns out that he is a tall man who doesn't show his face?
Therefore, Wu Yongchuan intentionally asked some unpopular questions, some of which even he couldn't answer.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu not only responded fluently, but also put forward a lot of his own opinions.

Wu Yongchuan was amazed, and quickly got up and clasped his fists: "The kid has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai. I wonder if it's convenient for the old man to tell you his name?"

In his mind, this might be a famous Confucian who hides in the busy city.

Zhou Yu smiled: "This old man's surname is Zhou, and his single name is the word Yu."

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhou, sorry!"

Qi'er also got up and met again, after all, she just came to say hello out of guilt before, but unexpectedly met an expert.

With this knowledge, I am afraid that even her deceased husband is not as good as her.

Speaking of which, her fate was quite rough.

Born in a scholarly family, he was doted on by his parents since he was a child.Later, he became attached to Wu Yongshan, Wu Yongchuan's elder brother, and became husband and wife.

After marriage, the husband and wife are affectionate and loving, envious of others.

Two years after getting married, Wu Yongshan got a good reputation, was recommended to work in the capital, and became a court official.

She moved to the capital with her husband, and later Wu Yongchuan also came to the capital, and was admitted to the Imperial College with excellent grades.

It can be said that this period of time was Qier's happiest time.

Never thought that misfortune would fall from the sky.

One day, when Wu Yongshan was walking home, a carriage ran over because the horse was frightened.

Wu Yongshan couldn't dodge and was knocked into the air on the spot.After treatment, he finally let go.

Sadly, Qi'er sent her husband's body back to her hometown for burial, thinking of staying in the country to live.

But Wu Yongchuan also said that he would not go to the Imperial College to study, and he wanted to stay in the country to accompany his elder brother.

Qi'er didn't want to delay his future, so in the end, she moved to the capital with her maid, Liu'er, in order to take care of her uncle's studies, strive for a good grade in the future exams, and comfort the soul of her deceased husband.

When the conversation was almost over, Zhou Yu got up to say goodbye.

Wu Yongchuan insisted on sending him back.

As a result, he walked to an inn.

Zhou Yu said: "My home is actually elsewhere. I came to the capital this time just to take a stroll here."

"I wonder how long the old man will stay in the capital?"

"It depends on the situation. I may not leave for a while."

"The junior, if you have time, can you come and visit the old gentleman?"

"Hehe, you can come whenever you want."

"Thank you, old man." Wu Yongchuan was overwhelmed with surprise, and said goodbye with his hands in his arms.

Back home, Qi'er came up to meet her and said, "Did the old man send you home?"

"Well, he is not from the capital, and he is currently living in an inn."

"Yong Chuan, I feel that this old gentleman is not simple. His knowledge is astonishing. If you have the opportunity, you might as well pay more visits."

"Well, I see, thank you sister-in-law for your concern."

"Alas..." Qi'er sighed faintly: "Your elder brother is gone, and now, the hope of the family rests on you. You...you must cheer up and don't let everyone down."

"I will."

"I'm tired, go take a rest."

"Ah."

After Qi'er left, Wu Yongchuan stared at her back for a long time, his eyes full of love.

After his eldest brother left, he was depressed for a while.

In fact, Qi'er was also very sad at that time, but she endured her grief and repeatedly comforted Wu Yongchuan to cheer up.

I don't know since when, Wu Yongchuan's heart is full of her shadow.

He suddenly felt that he could not do without this woman.

He wanted to protect and take care of this woman for the rest of his life instead of his elder brother...
