Half-demon Raising Immortals

Chapter 720 Lu Tai
Golden Flood Palace.

A square golden couch is located in the center of the palace, surrounded by a pool of spiritual water, with more than a dozen golden carps swimming in the water.

Lu Tong and Wan Miaonian sat on the couch.

Lu Tong raised his hand and passed a cup of tea, and said, "Fellow Daoist."

Wan Miaonian was not polite, took it and drank it in one gulp, with a smile on his face.

"Good tea."

"Sambo tea, I'll let someone pack a few catties later."

Sanbao tea is a herbal tea made by frying with the energy of the three treasures.

Lu Tong filled it up again and asked, "Did Lu Tai ever encounter any danger during his travels?"

"of course."

Wan Miaonian drank the tea in one gulp again.

Lu Tong pushed the teapot over directly.

While recalling, Wan Miaonian took the teapot, thought for a while, and didn't speak again until she drank the third cup of tea.

"I met an evil cultivator, it seems to be in the Li country. Lu Tai went into the mountains with the local young monks to arrest people, fell into the trap of the evil cultivator, and was almost killed."

"You made a move?"

"No, he has a lot of treasures, and he killed himself, but the few little monks who went into the mountain together died. When Lu Tai sent the body back, he was made a lot of trouble."

Lu Tong nodded slightly and said, "What else?"

The little blue bird sent panacea, melons and fruits.

"I also met bandits once."

Wan Miaonian grabbed a handful of the panacea, shook his head and said, "No, it's not a bandit, it should be a mountain man who occasionally became a bandit. When Lu Tai passed by, he stayed overnight and was drugged. He has too little experience. The people in the mountains are simple and honest in appearance and low in cultivation, so they have no defense at all, if I hadn't made a move, they would have fallen completely that time."

"Thank you."

Lu Tong squeezed a purple sesame fruit planted by Bao Rong.

Wan Miaonian grabbed a few more and said, "The other time was in the country of Zi. The laws of the country are strict, and the ranks are clearly defined. Lu Tai met a group of rich and rich people, and they drank two glasses of wine together, talking nonsense about the country. He was incapable of law, strong outside but weak in performance, and was reported by others, which made me also arrested."

Lu Tong shook his head with a smile.

Lu Tai's book was not read in vain.

Art and law are different.

Incorporating the art, it changes the people unconsciously, and the people follow the way.Liangyao Zhengguo establishes the style of good demons by spreading the law, teaching, and modifying utensils, which is the art of enlightenment.

The law is outside, the law is suspended, and the people are envoys.No matter how strict the laws of this country are, they can only restrain the hands and feet, but cannot control the mind.

"How did you get away?"

"I can't help it. The real people in Ziguo are too powerful. I'm no match. I had to tell them Lu Tai's identity. The last one called Ding Taibao summoned me and let us go after some questioning."

"Ding Chu, is he a baby?"

"It's done."

"anything else?"

Lu Tong took out a jug of wine.

Wan Miaonian stared at the jug, and said: "Lu Tai may have suffered a bit in prison, but later he became more sensible, and there has been no trouble."

Lu Tong was a little surprised, pushed the jug over, and said, "Didn't you have it when you were in Shanglin Kingdom?"

"No."

Wan Miaonian took the jug, drank a few swigs from the jug, and said: "Shanglin country is prosperous, Lu Tai has no intention of doing anything else, he is making friends with Taoists everywhere every day."

Lu Tong frowned, and when Wan Miaonian finished drinking, he asked, "Where is Concubine Wang Pin, how did Lu Tai know her?"

"That boy Lu Tai..."

Wan Miaonian smiled and pouted, seeing Lu Tong frowned, restrained herself a little, and said, "Lu Tai is lucky, Concubine Wang Pin is the daughter of the city lord of Guangping City, many people pursued her secretly, but in the end she just looked at her." Hit him. I suspect that he must have revealed his identity in private, or else..."

"Who is the mayor?"

"what?"

"Who is the lord of Guangping City?"

Dian Si'er has been inquiring about the situation of Shang Lin Kingdom. Since Dian Si'er became the devil's lord, there has been less and less news about Shang Lin Kingdom.

Wan Miao said: "Wang Jieheng, the title is 'Guangfa Ruilin'."

Lu Tong lowered his eyelids.

The high-ranking officials in Shanglin Kingdom, Tianlin, Longlin, Ruilin, and Wan Yi were originally Ruilin, and later opened up business channels in dozens of countries and were promoted to "Shunchuan Dragon Scale".

"Where is the mayor's wife?"

"I haven't seen it, and I rarely heard of it. There are rumors that it has a big background."

Lu Tong thought for a while, then said: "In your opinion, what is Wang Pinfei like?"

"Very well, although she is the daughter of the city lord, she is not arrogant at all, she is very kind, as if she has never been angry."

After finishing speaking, Wan Miaonian restrained her expression, and said: "A son of a country lord and a daughter of a city lord, with simple clothes and vegetarian food every day, and teaching in a small private school together, they are a match made in heaven."

Lu Tong fell silent, took out a jug of wine after a few breaths, and took a sip.

"anything else?"

"It's gone, the rest are trivial matters, and I can't finish talking."

"Working hard, fellow Daoist."

Wan Miaonian got up to say goodbye.

Lu Tong called the little blue bird and said, "Go and get five catties of fresh three-treasure tea and give it to Wan Zhenren."

"Yes."

……

into the night.

In Fushou Palace, all the normally bright lanterns were extinguished, and two large flags were hung in front of the bright colored glass.

Several small dishes were placed on a round table in the palace.

Lu Tong sat alone at the table.

"sit."

"Thank you father."

Lu Tai and Consort Wang bowed together and sat down one after another.

Lu Tong glanced at his son, looked sideways at Concubine Wang Pin, and asked, "Concubine Pin, I heard that your father is the lord of the city?"

"Yes."

"When you and I got married, Tai'er was just a teacher in a small private school. Why did your father agree to the marriage?"

Concubine Wang Pin looked at Lu Tai.

Lu Tai said: "Father, Feier knows my identity. Not long after we met, Feier told me in private, and..."

Lu Tai took a light breath and said, "Concubine is from the ancestors' family, I...I have also met her real aunt."

Lu Tong was very surprised, looked at the two of them back and forth, and already guessed the identity of that person in his heart.

"Who?"

Lu Tai and Wang Pinfei looked at each other.

Lu Tai said: "Shunchuan Longlin of Shanglin Kingdom is the ancestor of Wanyi."

Lu Tong lowered his eyelids.

"What did you say?"

"My aunt said that the letter I sent was too obvious. If there were any enemies, they would have been discovered long ago. She also said that she had done something wrong back then and had always wanted to apologize to her father, but she was worried that his father would not forgive her. Let me intercede."

Lu Tong reached for the jug.

Concubine Wang Pin got up immediately, picked up the jug, and went to the side to pour the wine.

Lu Tai continued: "The concubine was instructed by my aunt to approach me, and then the concubine secretly told me the truth."

Lu Tong drank a glass of wine.

"Gone?"

"Also, my aunt taught me a kung fu "Eight Skills of the Kylin", including concealment, mysterious transformation, spirit armor, and soul-hunting, etc. My aunt also said that I will be able to become a Nascent Soul soon, and I will come to see you in person when the time comes Father."

Lu Tai spoke one aunt to another, and Lu Tong got upset when he heard it, and said: "You know that Wang Pinfei has bad intentions when she approaches, and you still take the bait?"

Concubine Wang Pin stood beside her holding the jug, her face flushed rapidly.

"Father, I..."

Lu Tai stood up and stopped Concubine Wang Pin, and said, "Father, concubine is not the kind of person you think. The affection between us has nothing to do with our ancestors, our father, or our two countries, besides..."

Lu Tai hesitated.

Lu Tong: "Besides what?"

Lu Tai hesitated again, gritted his teeth, and said, "I heard from my mother that when my mother met my father, she was not aboveboard."

Lu Tong froze for a moment, and slowly grinned.

"Very good, growing up."

Lu Tai took half a step back, but when he saw Concubine Wang Pin next to him, he gritted his teeth and kept looking at Lu Tong.

After a few breaths, Lu Tong slowly retracted his gaze.

"Have a meal."

……

Half a month later, night fell.

Lu Tai entered the Ziqi Hall alone, and said: "Father, I will go to the Shangfeng Pagoda tomorrow to take up the post of Pagoda Master. I came here to bid farewell to my father, and hope that my father will take care of himself."

"Concubine Wang Pin is going too?"

"Yes."

Lu Tong pondered for a while, and said: "Let's go later tomorrow. There is a lady in the Bu family named Bu Shigao. She will go to Shangfeng Pagoda with you."

"Father, what is Miss Bu's going to do?"

"Whatever Concubine Wang Pin does, she will do."

"Father, this..."

Lu Tai's eyes widened, he cupped his hands and said, "Tai'er has no such intentions, please father recall this person!"

Lu Tong was silent for a while, and said, "You think I gave it to you?"

Lu Tai was a little puzzled.

Lu Tong let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Bushigao was begged by your mother for you, do you understand?"

Behind Bu Shigao is the Bu family. The Bu family has the method of refining weapons, "Secret Monster Fate Body Skill", and also has a force in Baishan, and has a deep relationship with Feiyang Chamber of Commerce.

The current Bu family is not inferior to the Jue family at all.

Lu Tai thought for a while, and gradually understood the deep meaning behind it, and some embarrassment appeared on his face.

Lu Tong stood up from the couch, walked towards Lu Tai, and said, "If you want to fight, fight to the end. Fight for everything you can."

"I……"

Lu Tai was about to speak.

Lu Tong interrupted directly, saying: "A fight for position is a fight for life. We must use all means, open and dark, righteous and evil. If you can't do it, then give up as soon as possible, so as not to harm others and yourself in the end."

Lu Tai's pupils contracted, revealing a hint of flinching.

Lu Tong patted Lu Tai on the shoulder and said: "The same is true for Concubine Wang Pin. Behind her are Shanglin Kingdom, Wanyao Chamber of Commerce, Zujia, and Guangping City. Let her be used by you."

Lu Tai was restless and slowly lowered his head.

Lu Tong turned around and returned to the couch, saying: "Go, your mother is gone, no one will protect you from the wind and rain in the future, and you have to do some things by yourself."

Lu Tai stood there for a long time, heaved a long sigh, bowed his hands and bowed down, and said, "Tai'er understands, father take care."

……

After a storm, life returned to calm.

Year after year, the population and business of Liangyaozheng Kingdom became more and more prosperous, and the appearance of each city changed drastically, and several fairy cities that looked like heavenly palaces appeared one after another.

Bowang City is now the fourth largest city in Liangyaozheng Kingdom.

The Liangyao Tower, the tallest building in the city back then, is no longer eye-catching. There are nine more giant towers around it. The giant towers are connected to each other by stairs and bridges, and there are floating pavilions on the left and right.

In one of the pavilions.

Lu Tong and Zhang Qiao sat together.

Zhang Qiao said: "My lord, there is still a quarter of an hour to start."

"Ah."

Lu Tong's appearance did not change at all, and his eyes became deeper.

A quarter of an hour later, the clouds and mist around the pavilion surged, and a person stepped out on clouds of colored smoke.

"Everyone has been waiting for a long time! Today is "The Way of Heaven Can be Righteous", please enjoy it!"

The colorful clouds surged, covering the figures, and gradually paved a colorful water curtain with a length of [-] feet and a height of [-] feet.

"Boom, boom, dang!"

The sounds of mallet drums, short drums, fifes, and syllables sounded together.

Various colors flow in the water curtain, transforming into figures, landscapes, mansions, etc. As the scenery gradually becomes clear, the sound of playing music slowly falls.

The figure moved around, and several voices sounded one after another.

"Hey, whose beauty is this, why has the young master never seen it before?"

In the water curtain, a prodigal young master stopped a woman, the woman dodged around, and the young master chased after her everywhere.

"Brothers, let's go together!"

A group of strong men rushed out and surrounded the woman.

In the room opposite the water curtain, Lu Tong said, "Is this the water shadow play?"

"Correct."

Zhang Qiao looked solemn.

Lu Tongdao: "Getting rid of violence and keeping the good and the good and the good and the happy are all tricks for people to entertain. What's so special about it?"

"The play is not unusual, what is unusual is the Cheng Kingdom in the play."

"Prime Kingdom?"

Lu Tong has been in seclusion for a long time, and has never heard the name of this country.

"Ten years ago it was a small country, but now it has become a big country."

Zhang Qiao took out a stack of books and said: "This is the playbook of Water Shadow Opera. All the plays take place in the Cheng Kingdom. The Chinese master and officials live and eat with ordinary people. The officials are upright. Every play is hosted justice."

In the water curtain, the prodigal young master had already returned to his residence.

"Zhang Mansion" is hung on the door of the residence, but the mansion is just an ordinary courtyard, not a mansion, far inferior to a floating pavilion.

Lu Tong blinked his eyes, looking a little more serious.

"Anyone believe it?"

"A lot. In the past five years, the Cheng Kingdom has annexed three small countries in a row. Every time, the people of other countries took the lead in rebelling, and the Cheng Kingdom took advantage of the trend to destroy the country."

"Who is the king?"

"White Spear, came out of the land of the ancient immortals. It was not very eye-catching before, but it suddenly exploded in the past few years."

"Everyone is equal..."

Lu Tong looked at the water curtain.

In the middle of the scene, the master, wife, and young master of Zhang's mansion, the strong man and the servant girl who made the move just now were sitting at the same long table to eat.

He was a little skeptical and said, "Is this real or fake?"

Zhang Qiao sighed, and said: "Really. I sent someone to find out that Bai Mao lived in a tile-roofed house and ate and drank at the street stalls every day. Bai Mao's wife raised silkworms and weaved cloth herself."

Lu Tong's face was troubled.

People's hearts are hard to come by, but once you get them, nothing is difficult in the world.

Zhang Qiao said: "Master, we must ban the water shadow play as soon as possible."

Lu Tong looked at the various scenes in the water curtain, his eyes flickered a few times, and said, "Is this true for everyone in the Cheng Kingdom?"

"almost."

Lu Tong shook his head slowly, and said: "Impossible. You are born with such a beautiful heart. After finally becoming an official, cultivating a real person, and eating and living with ordinary people, isn't it a waste of work?"

"My lord, it is true."

"This is the case now, but it may not be the case in the future."

Zhang Qiao said: "Then... shall we not do it first?"

"Where is Chengguo?"

"South of Ji State, northwest of Zhang State."

"Don't rush to do it."

Lu Tong got up and walked outside, saying: "I don't believe that people can not be greedy for enjoyment, let's see how long they can endure."

……

Another few years passed.

Ziqi Hall, the little blue bird entered the hall and said: "Master, please see the Lord of the Palace."

"Bring it in."

Lu Tong's method of restraint.

Jue Tianniu entered the hall and said: "My lord, I have something to report. There have been frequent murders and robberies recently, so I have to deal with it."

"what?"

"It's related to Feiyang, Shouzheng and other chambers of commerce."
