Chunyang First Headmaster

Chapter 332
Strolling through the western capital, you can see the bustling city and the flow of people.Xiao Qianli glanced at it for a few moments, and only thought about the words of Jia Luosazha just now: "I don't know how many young men have been recruited by Mr. Song. They work in agriculture in their busy hours, and practice soldiers and horses in their spare time. They are half farmers and half soldiers. They are so happy..."

"King Daming is one of the four great elders of the Tantric Sect. Even if there are some exaggerated words, they must be true." Xiao Qianli's curiosity was aroused, and he did not look for Song Shujian at the moment. Walking around the pedestrians, trying to identify who among them might be the young man Song Shujian recruited.

Xidu is the main city of Xiping County, and Xiping is the head of the Northwest counties, there is a lot of people coming and going, it is rare for Xiao Qianli to have such a leisurely time, and he has already wandered to the northern suburbs before he knew it, but the bamboos and trees are gloomy and green Overlapping, moist without rain, dizzy without smoke.There is another beautiful mountain, not more than a hundred feet high, with trees growing on rocks, with strange branches and leaves.Immediately, he said to himself: "What a resort..."

Although it was late autumn, the hill in front of him was still green and verdant. Seeing that the sky was still early, Xiao Qianli became interested and started to climb the mountain.

Suddenly, two strong men in blue short robes came to meet Xiao Qianli. When they saw Xiao Qianli, they couldn't stop looking at him with surprise on their faces.

Xiao Qianli just glanced at the two of them, saw that their feet were brisk and their waists bulged, obviously concealing weapons, although he knew that the two were armed with martial arts, he didn't take it seriously, and immediately passed sideways.

After a while, two more people came over, with puzzled expressions on their faces, they looked up and down at Xiao Qianli, but they didn't say a word, when the three of them passed by, the two still turned their heads for a few glances, He whispered a few words, but Xiao Qianli didn't pay attention.

Turning around a bend, I suddenly heard Yaoqin dingdong, an old voice sang:
"Jimu North Mountain Road. Doubing South, Danhua Cuijing, Hongxia and Purple Mist. Hand-folded Qihua is like a dream now, where is the twelfth building? I still remember my partner at that time. I know who is in charge of the East Mansion and the West Terrace. I recall the time and myself. The golden bottle rains. Human affairs, waiting for the wind. The emperor is thunderous and thunderous. What is my fate, the capital of Qing Dynasty, Jiangque, has suddenly become eternal. The news of white cranes and green crows is broken, and dreams of singing and dancing. Turn around and go back. The debt must be paid off, this time, I have tasted all the suffering in the world of mortals. It is like a return, Queen Mother of the West."

Xiao Qianli stood quietly by the side, listened carefully, nodded and said to himself: "This poem is full of simple descriptions, and the writing is beautiful and gorgeous, but the section of "The Emperor Hehe Thunder Lord" is the stinky foot of praising the emperor. He has a bit of character. Thinking about it, this person used to be an official, but now he is probably at home with nothing to do, and recalling the past, he is also leisurely."

He followed the sound and saw a pavilion not far away. Among them was a long-bearded old man in his fifties, with luxurious clothes and a handsome appearance. He was raising a glass for a drink.Sitting next to her was a young girl with a Yaoqin on her lap.

Outside the pavilion, more than a dozen big men stood by, staring at each other, and surrounded the pavilion, making it impossible to get through.

Xiao Qianli frowned, seeing the momentum, he must be someone from the government.He didn't want to deal with these people, and wanted to avoid them, but he saw that there was only one road leading to the mountain. If he went down here, he would be too petty.

He pondered for a while, and immediately walked towards the pavilion. Everyone had seen a young Taoist priest coming, and they all turned their eyes to Xiao Qianli. Walking past the pavilion, he really looked very graceful.

Xiao Qianli didn't want to be troublesome, but the old man came to provoke him instead. Seeing Xiao Qianli's attire, he hesitated for a moment, and shouted: "Taoist, please stay!"

Xiao Qianli frowned, stood upright, flicked his robe sleeves, raised his left palm, bent his index finger in a Taoist salute, and asked, "What do you dare to ask me?"

The old man laughed and said: "Dare to ask which faction of masters the chief is?"

"This seat comes from Kunlun Yuxu, and is of the pure Yang lineage!"

Hearing "Kunlun Yuxu", the old man suddenly smiled and said happily: "It turns out that it is the ancestral home of the Taoist sect. I think the Taoist leader is a real person with Taoism. Recently, the old man has some doubts, and he is looking for someone who can explain it to the old man." Dare to ask the chief, would you like to talk about it?"

Xiao Qianli didn't want to hang around with this person at first, but suddenly his heart moved, he smiled and said: "Do you dare not follow orders?" He walked into the pavilion slowly.

I saw a figure flickering, but two big men came forward one from the left and the other from the right. They stretched out their big hands like cattail leaf fans to stop Xiao Qianli, and one of them shouted: "Please take off the weapon first, and I will protect you on your behalf." ..."

Before the man finished speaking, he saw a flash in front of his eyes, the young Taoist priest had disappeared without a trace in front of him, he hurriedly turned around to look, only to see Xiao Qianli had already entered the pavilion, flicking his Confucian style Taoist robe in leisure time, Sit down like a golden knife.

All the big men suddenly became commotion, and the two looked even more panicked, they wanted to rush into the pavilion, but hesitated to go forward.The old man smiled, but glared at them, signaling them not to move rashly.

Xiao Qianli glanced at the crowd, and said with a light smile, "The servant is devoted to protecting the Lord, but it is not appropriate to punish him!"

The old man was stunned for a while, then suddenly laughed, nodded and said: "As expected of a Taoist master from Kunlun Mountain, he has a kind heart, and the old man has been taught! Haven't you thanked the real person?"

All the burly men looked at each other and clasped their fists to salute Xiao Qianli. Xiao Qianli nodded slightly in return.

The old man saw that Xiao Qianli's demeanor was graceful and refined, but his behavior seemed to be in a superior position for a long time.He can be considered to have read all kinds of things in the world, but he couldn't figure out Xiao Qianli's real identity for a while, so he laughed and ordered a servant to bring a wine glass, and said with a smile: "Can you drink it?"

Xiao Qianli took it with a smile, and drank it down, only to feel soft in the mouth, not like the pungent Northwest spirits, and then smiled and said: "The wine is soft and clear, it seems to be produced in the south of the Yangtze River."

One sentence instead aroused all kinds of melancholy in the old man. He nodded and said with a wry smile: "When the old man left Jiangnan, the twenty jars of fine wine he brought with him are now very few. Every time I drink a few glasses, it is like revisiting Suzhou Hang Jiuyu, remembering the former residence, is very sad."

Xiao Qianli put down his wine glass and said with a light smile: "A confidant in the sea is like a neighbor in the world. Jiangnan has the advantages of Jiangnan, but the northwest also has the beauty of the northwest. You can be safe as you encounter!"

The old man was slightly taken aback, then applauded and praised: "It's a good saying, 'A confidant in the sea is like a neighbor in the end of the world'. It should be the three whites!"

He suddenly became very excited, drinking three glasses in a row, looking at Xiao Qianli's eyes, he became more and more appreciative.

"The real person has such talents and learning, and is so young, why should he always be with the green lamp and the quiet yellow court?" The old man chuckled, "If the real person wants to be an official, the guard of the western capital here is old with me, and the real person will go to see him in his spare time. When he sees it, or encounters it, it is still unknown."

Xiao Qianli chuckled, and said: "Thank you for your good intentions, I regard fame and fortune as floating clouds. Not to mention defecting to the city guard, even if you become the head of a county, how can you be as happy and at ease as Xianyun Yehe?"

As soon as these words came out, the complexions of the old man and everyone outside the pavilion changed slightly.The old man said in a deep voice: "The Taoist priest has already guessed the identity of the old man?"

Xiao Qianli was originally probing, but when he heard the old man's self-identification, he smiled and said: "So it's the new Xiping County Governor, sorry for my stupid eyes, I'm rude!"

The old man's face turned pale, and he sighed: "Forget it! The Taoist chief is originally from outside the country, and I shouldn't force it. It's a pity that I, the county guard, are really useless."

"Oh?" Xiao Qianli smiled and said, "I would like to hear more about it—"
