Taiqing Sword

Chapter 264, Departure

In the early morning of the next day, Shangguan Jinghong had already arrived in the temple and waited. He felt that neither of them had arrived yet, and when Luo Fu heard the news that Shangguan Jinghong was going to a foreign land, he stayed up all night. While waiting for Shangguan Jinghong, Shangguan Jinghong said anxiously: "Holy One, you should think twice about this matter. Although the subordinates of Persia mentioned by the Holy One have not been to it, it is a foreign land after all. When it comes to something, there are no cronies around..."

Shangguan Jinghong smiled: "Luo Fu, I know you are worried, but if you are aware of the two masters walking together, you will not encounter any major problems in the future. Besides, this trip is not a conflict with them, it is just understanding. "

Luo Fu sighed: "It seems that the Lord has made up his mind. Since there is no way to dissuade you, then let the subordinates go with you. If there is anything, the subordinates may help the Lord to relieve his worries."

Shangguan Jinghong thought for a while, and finally shook his head: "Luo Fu, you should stay. I thought about letting you accompany me before, but I really don't feel at ease here. The disciples have suffered, and there is no guarantee that they will not come here, you are unparalleled in resourcefulness, and I can rest assured that you are here."

Luo Fu knew that what Shangguan Jinghong said was entirely possible, so he nodded his head: "In that case, the subordinates will stay, but there must be no one around the Holy One, let Linghu go with you, at least there is someone there By your side, it will be more convenient for the Holy One no matter what you do."

Shangguan Jinghong nodded: "You, you, well, you go and inform Linghu, let her go with me."

Luo Fu nodded with a smile. Just as he was about to leave the house, he ran into Juexin and Jue Zhi. Luo Fu bowed slightly: "Two masters, I entrust the two masters for the comfort of the Holy One this time."

Juezhi didn't speak but just returned a salute, Juexin said: "Don't worry, Luo Fu benefactor, I will do my best, is Shangguan benefactor in the hall?"

Luo Fu said: "Yes, the Holy One has arrived long ago, and has been waiting for the two masters, please, master."

Jue Xin felt that before the two of them entered the palace, Shangguan Jinghong had already greeted them: "I have seen the two masters, did you rest well last night?"

"Haha, very good, I kept the benefactor waiting for a long time, I don't know when I will leave?" Juexin said with a Buddhist ceremony.

Shangguan Jinghong smiled slightly: "The two masters should enter the hall first. I ordered someone to prepare some exotic clothes last night. Since we are going to Persia this time, we must be prepared. Please ask the two masters to change."

Jue Xin and Jue Zhi looked at each other with wry smiles and entered the hall, and the clothes provided by Shangguan Jinghong were completely made overnight by dictating the exotic dresses he had seen in TV dramas before, and they were all based on his memory.

After the two monks changed their clothes, they looked at each other for a long time, and suddenly burst out laughing, as if they had already imagined their appearance from each other's clothes, and Shangguan Jinghong tried his best to restrain himself from laughing out loud , after all, these two are guests.

At this time, Linghu was notified by Luo Fu, and came in a hurry. As soon as he entered the palace, seeing the appearance of Jue Xin and Jue Zhi, he staggered, opened his mouth wide in shock, and then laughed uncontrollably , the two monks were very embarrassed, Shangguan Jinghong coughed twice, pointed to Linghu and said: "It's just in time, you also have a set, go and exchange it."

When Linghu heard the laughter stopped abruptly, he stepped back and waved his hands again and again: "That holy one, I don't have to change it, do I?"

Shangguan Jinghong said: "Don't talk nonsense, if you want to go to Persia with me, you must wear it."

Linghu glanced at Shangguan Jinghong resentfully, then rolled his eyes at Luo Fu, thinking why didn't you tell me this in advance, Luo Fu touched his nose, thinking that I actually don't know.

In fact, Linghu originally wore this set of women's clothing, which was prepared by Shangguan Jinghong for his wife on a whim, but now Linghu is going to follow, as long as she is allowed to put it on first, Linghu just grabs a suit and puts it on. He walked out timidly.

Shangguan Jinghong couldn't hold it back, and burst out laughing, Linghu blushed instantly, and the tense atmosphere of tens of people suddenly eased a lot, Shangguan Jinghong looked similar, and changed himself , Said: "Two masters, this junior dares to ask the two masters to temporarily use the aliases of Ah Da and Ah Er to pretend to be the followers of the younger generation."

Juexin nodded: "Everything is obeyed by the benefactor."

Shangguan Jinghong smiled slightly: "In this case, let's leave without delay."

A group of four people left Guiyun City without any pause on the road, all the way to the west, even so, they took a lot of wrong roads, after many inquiries, they finally managed to walk in the right direction ten days later, and saw the yellow road in front of them. The sand is rolling, if it is not for the sparse houses, this is simply an endless desert.

Shangguan Jinghong said with some uncertainty: "Grandmasters, we should not be far from Persia any further. Let's find a room to spend the night, and then we must pay attention to our words and deeds."

Juexin clasped his hands together, and quickly put them down again: "Please don't worry, the benefactor, the two old monks and brothers are dumb from now on, and everything will follow the arrangement of the benefactor."

Linghu looked around and said, "Holy One, is this Persia?"

Shangguan Jinghong nodded: "It should be, even if you don't arrive, it's not far away. From now on, you should pay attention to what you say and do."

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Jinghong walked a few steps forward and stopped in front of a house. Linghu knew how to knock on the door. After a while, an old man walked out of the house. His clothes were almost the same as those of the Central Plains people. , but I don’t know how many years I have worn the clothes, and my body is covered with patches. When I opened the door, I saw Shangguan Jinghong and the four of them. Chief, the old man’s family really can’t afford food and money any more, please be kind to the chiefs.”

When Shangguan Jinghong heard the old man speak Chinese, he thought that he hadn't left the Central Plains yet, but he heard the old man's words again and frowned slightly: "Old man, we are just staying overnight."

The fear on the old man's face has not subsided, but there is a trace of reluctance in his eyes: "The leaders, the old houses are simple and shabby, I am afraid that I have humiliated the leaders."

Shangguan Jinghong said: "You don't have to be afraid, the old man. The few of us passed by here. It's getting late. We just need a place to shelter from the wind." He took out a silver coin from his bosom and handed it to the old man: "This silver coin It's all for housing." In fact, I was very surprised in my heart, the old man's trembling voice clearly swore that he was afraid, could it be that they were really so scary?
