The history of the struggle of the God of the Stove

Chapter 28 Li Jing's Huge Relationship Network
At noon that day, Qi Yuan was teaching about the combination of dishes when he suddenly heard a commotion outside.

He turned his head to look, and saw a group of soldiers coming to the door, and one of them, a short-bearded man with extraordinary temperament, walked in accompanied by the postmaster.

When he came to the front, the postmaster introduced to Qi Yuan: "Sir, this is Mr. Li from Chentangguan. I heard that Mr. Ting is here, and I am here to pay a visit."

"Oh?"

Qi Yuan's face was calm: "I have seen General Li."

"Don't dare."

Li Jing was modest and prudent, he bowed his hands and said: "Li Jing has been busy with official duties, but he didn't know that Mr. came to Chentangguan, and he never came to visit. It's rude, please don't blame him."

Qi Yuan quickly became polite: "General Li, you are being polite. This old man is just a grassroots person. How can he deserve a general's visit? It should be the old man who goes to visit him."

"Sir, I don't know. I, Chen Tangguan, received a letter from your majesty last year, saying that Mr. intends to pass on his skills to the people of the world so that the people of the world can benefit from them. Mr. Li really admires such a great act of kindness."

Li Jing was full of admiration, and said: "It's just that I heard that the master is not in Chaoge, why did he come to Chentangguan suddenly, and no one was notified, otherwise Li Jing would just wait and see, how could it be until today?" Come and visit."

I have to say that Li Jing still has a way of dealing with people. He speaks modestly and politely, which can easily make people feel good.

"Hehe, you don't have to worry about it, General."

Qi Yuan waved his hand: "I just want to walk a few more places while I can still walk in my lifetime, so that more people can improve their lives. In this way, I am satisfied."

"This time, it's just to impart skills to the people of Chentangguan. The general doesn't need to come here on purpose, so as not to miss the general's official duties. That's not good."

Hearing this, Li Jing couldn't help but praise him greatly.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a generation of sages who only want to make the people of the world live a better life, but he lives in this simple post house, which is really admirable.

Thinking of this, I feel more and more that I should do something for the sage, otherwise the sage came all the way to Chentang Pass, and Li Jing, as the commander in chief, didn't care about it. If it spread, wouldn't it be Bad reputation?

So Li Jing said quickly: "Where did you come from, sir? Since you have come to Chentangguan, Li Jing has not shown his friendship as a landlord. Isn't it a joke? In any case, I still have to invite you to the mansion to talk about it. Let people say that Li Jing does not know etiquette."

In this way, under Li Jing's warm invitation, Qi Yuan had no choice but to follow him to the mansion as a guest with a face full of helplessness.

As for whether it is really helpless or not, only he himself knows.

Seeing that Qi Yuan was carrying a child with him, Li Jing asked curiously, "Who is this child?"

"This is my disciple."

Qi Yuan touched Qi Yi's little head, and said: "Both parents of this child died, and he lived alone. I saw him pitiful, so I took him with me."

"Mister is very kind!"

Li Jing greatly appreciated these kind acts.

"Ha ha."

Qi Yuan chuckled: "The so-called future cause, today's result, if it weren't for the benevolence of the original thought, I'm afraid the general might not see me."

"Oh?"

Li Jing was puzzled, and asked: "What do you mean by this, sir?"

"Oh, it's hard to say."

Qi Yuan sighed, and told the story of first encountering the evil Ma Yuan at the foot of Skull Mountain, and then being surrounded and killed by wolves. .

"What a good boy."

When Li Jing heard the words, he also praised him greatly.

He and his wife had three sons. The eldest son Jin Zha worshiped Manjusri Guangfa Tianzun in Yunxiao Cave of Wulong Mountain as his teacher, and the second son Mu Zha worshiped Puxian Zhenren in Baihe Cave of Jiugong Mountain as his teacher. Now the two sons follow the master to practice and are not around.

Only the third son Nezha, because of his young age, has not been brought back to practice in the Golden Light Cave of Qianyuan Mountain by his master Taiyi, but also because he is busy with military affairs and neglects to discipline him, so Nezha is very naughty.

Seeing that Qi Yi is so well-behaved and sensible now, I feel a little envious in my heart, thinking that although I have three sons, but due to various reasons, I have not been able to enjoy the family happiness, and I am quite helpless.

"Therefore, I have to trouble the general to send someone to report this matter to King Wu Cheng when communicating with Chao Ge, and ask King Wu Cheng to take care of the family members of the dead guards."

Qi Yuan bowed to the ground and asked Li Jing to help him pass the news of the death of those guards back to Chaoge. With his relationship with Huang Feihu, he could arrange the family members of those guards more properly.

Li Jing quickly helped him up, and agreed: "It should be like this, sir, there is no need to be too polite."

When they arrived at the mansion, Li Jing ordered a big banquet to entertain Qi Yuan well.

Facing Li Jing's warm reception, Qi Yuan also happily responded.

Besides, he was also willing to get closer to Li Jing in his heart.

Not to mention that Li Jing still needs the help of Li Jing to complete his current plan, even in the future, this guy will also be an important minister of the heavenly court, and the status of King Tota is far higher than the position of Kitchen God that Qi Yuan is seeking.

After all, the Kitchen God is just a small god who is in charge of the cooking stoves in the lower world. Compared with Li Jing, one is a small local official and the other is a minister of the court. There is a big gap.

Moreover, Li Jing is also related to many powerful people.

He himself first worshiped Daoist Duer of West Kunlun as his teacher, and then Taoist Randeng as his teacher. He was given such a powerful magic weapon as the 33-story Linglong Pagoda by Taoist Randeng.

After Taoist Ran Deng entered Buddhism, he was known as the existence of Buddha in the past, and he was one of the three major Buddhas of Buddhism along with Tathagata, so his status was so high.

And the masters of his three sons are also high-ranking masters, Jin Zha's master, the current Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun, and the future Manjushri Bodhisattva of Buddhism.

The second son, Mu Zha, became a teacher of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva after the Battle of the Conferred Gods, not to mention this one, who is even more famous.

It can be said that Li Jing's relationship network is really very strong. Whether it is the Golden Immortal who explains the teachings, or the Buddha Lord and Bodhisattva of Buddhism, he can get in touch with him.

Just relying on this network of relationships on his body, it is enough for him to occupy a very high position in the heaven.

So Qi Yuan is very willing to establish a good relationship with Li Jing when he is not yet developed, maybe in the future, something will be asked to his head?
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, the two of them both wanted to make friends with each other, so they chatted very harmoniously.

Just when the two were talking happily, a child walked in from the outside, who was very cute in pink and jade.

With sharp eyes, Qi Yuan saw that he was wearing red long silk and a gold bracelet on his right arm at a glance. No need to ask, this child must be Nezha.

Otherwise, other people's children would not dare to break into the General Military Mansion.

Sure enough, Li Jing asked, "Nezha, you're not playing in the backyard, what are you doing here?"

"Father, the child is very bored in the backyard. I heard that Daddy is entertaining guests, so I came over to have a look."

As he said that, Nezha looked at Qi Yuan and asked curiously, "Is this old man a guest invited by Daddy?"

"Bold."

Li Jing scolded angrily: "This is my great business sage, Nezha, don't be rude."

"Oh."

Nezha agreed casually, he didn't care about the sages and not the sages.

Daoist Taiyi had told him a long time ago that he would go to Xiqi to be the vanguard of the Shang Dynasty, so he was full of hostility towards the Great Shang Dynasty in his heart, and he was even thinking secretly, since the old guy in front of him is a great merchant The sage, if he finds an opportunity to beat him to death, it can be regarded as a credit for Xiqi.
