Chapter 19 Behind the Scenes of Taiping Road!

Quiet indoors.

Lu Yu looked at the three high-quality spiritual stones in his hand and a small one of the best spiritual stones. He couldn't help but said softly: "I really feel like I am being taken care of..."

With these spiritual stones, even if there is a time flow difference between you and the little rich woman, you don’t have to worry too much.

These spiritual stones can be cultivated for a long time.

Even if this world is depleted of spiritual energy, if the spiritual stone is taken back to this world, the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual stone will slowly escape.

But because of the sealing of the spirit stone crystal, the speed of this escape will be very slow.

It will take at least a hundred years for the light to gradually fade.

In fact, there was no need for Lu Yu to use it completely by that time.

As he continues to practice and improve his realm, Lu Yu's consumption of spirit stones will become faster and faster.

If the little rich woman wasn't extremely rich and could provide such high-quality spiritual stones, she might not be able to guarantee Lu Yu's cultivation.

After all, in the future world, ordinary people still account for the majority. Most people can't even afford spiritual sand and low-grade spiritual stones, let alone provide them to Lu Yu for practice.

Therefore, Lu Yu kept the kindness of the little rich woman in mind.

When talismans, spells, ancient martial arts techniques, and various killing techniques are found in the future, they will be passed on to her as soon as possible.

As heroic spirits and spiritual masters, the two sides are complementary to each other.

Lu Yu put the spirit stone into the inner layer of his clothes and put it away carefully. This kind of treasure must be carried with him and must not be seen by outsiders.

If someone sees it, even if they don't know it is a spiritual stone, they will definitely know that it is a rare treasure.

At that time, it will inevitably cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"Boom boom boom!"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the quiet room.

Wei Ergou's voice came from outside.

"Brother, Deacon Tang wants to see you!"

Lu Yu had told him not to disturb him if there was nothing very important while he was practicing. The three brothers could discuss it together.

If there is something you can't decide, call yourself again.

"Deacon Tang?" Lu Yu was a little surprised, "Why is he here?"

Deacon Tang is a friend I made some time ago and is also the direct deacon under Qu Shuai Zhang Mancheng.

Unlike Lu Yu, Lu Yu only had three men under his command: Kong Yue, Ren Qingshan, and Wei Ergou. It could be said that he was single and weak.

As for Deacon Tang, he had five hundred warriors under his command, and even some of the sect's guardians gave him a lot of face.

The two had a few drinks and got to know each other, but their relationship was not deep.

"Brother, he said he has something important to do. Do you want to see him?" Wei Ergou's voice came from outside again.

Lu Yu opened the door, nodded and said, "Let's lead him to the living room."

Soon, Lu Yu saw Deacon Tang. He was wearing a monochromatic satin suit. He was low-key and restrained without losing luxury.

When Deacon Tang saw Lu Yu, he smiled and saluted, and then said seriously: "Deacon Lu, I have a family dinner here. I would like to invite the deacon to come and talk to me. I wonder if I can do it as a courtesy?"

"Brother Tang came to invite you personally. How can you refuse?" Lu Yu smiled and agreed directly.

Tang Shigui came to him specially and said that he had something important to discuss with him, and he couldn't just come to him for a drink.

Later, Lu Yu took Kong Yue, Wei Ergou, and Ren Qingshan, who were practicing martial arts, to Tang Shigui's home.

Deacon Tang's original name was Tang Li, with the courtesy name Shigui. In this era, ordinary scholarly families would give their children a nickname.

Kong Yue also has a prefix, so he should usually be called Kong Hongqing. Calling him by his first name can be said to be a bit insulting.

However, whether it was Lu Yu, Wei Ergou or Ren Qingshan, they were all born in the lower class of Guizhou and had no characters, so he followed the local customs and asked his brothers to call him by his first name, which made him a little unfamiliar.

But this was treating one of our own, and it would obviously be inappropriate to treat Deacon Tang like this.

Tang Shigui rode a horse in front, and a few people behind him sat in an ox cart. After about half an hour, they finally arrived at Tang Shigui's home.

"This……?"

Lu Yu looked at the Wubao mansion in the distance and couldn't help but frown, his heart thumping.

There have been a lot of speculations about the problem that has been bothering me for a long time, but the speculations are just speculations, without evidence!
  And now, those questions have been explained at this moment, and there is evidence!
  "Is this Deacon Tang's home?" Ren Qingshan, who was beside Lu Yu, couldn't help but ask. "That's right." Tang Shigui nodded and said with a smile, "The family banquet is ready. We can just go in."

The closer the distance is, the more luxurious this Wubao is.

A deep ditch was dug around Wubao as a moat. The high wall was more than three feet high, which was higher than the city wall in the county!

There were soldiers patrolling outside. When they saw Lu Yu and his group coming, they immediately came over to greet them.

"Young Master! You are back!" the soldier said enthusiastically, and came over to lead Deacon Tang's horse.

"We have a distinguished guest coming today. Is your home ready?" Tang Shigui asked with a smile.

"It's ready!" The soldier nodded quickly.

Kong Yue glanced at Lu Yu. He obviously had a lot of questions that he wanted to ask, but he couldn't ask directly. He waited until Lu Yu nodded before asking: "Since Deacon Tang belongs to a wealthy family, why do you want to join Taiping Dao?"

"Haha, am I from a wealthy family?" Tang Shigui shook his head and said with a smile, "Besides, who stipulates that if you have a good family background, you can't join Taiping Tao?"

"The great virtuous master founded the Taiping Dao. I long for it, so naturally I want to join the Taiping Dao."

"Taipingdao is great. Everyone yearns for a peaceful and prosperous age. I like such a pure place."

"If you enter an official career and all you see and hear is dirty, then you have to do things you don't want to do and become the person you hated most before, what's the point?"

"If a person only lives for fame and wealth in this life, that would be too boring. I don't want to be that person!"

This was said in a cool and unrestrained manner, and for Tang Shigui, it was also very convincing!

After all, he comes from a wealthy family, not a wealthy one, but a powerful one. With such a family, he should have enjoyed endless glory and wealth, but he joined the Taiping Dao without hesitation, made a lot of achievements, and became a deacon. It is really admirable!

Listening to Tang Shigui's words, Kong Yue, Wei Ergou, and Ren Qingshan looked in admiration, and they all felt that Tang Shigui was a great person.

Lu Yu's expression was a little subtle and strange.

He is not that simple and easy to deceive, but he can be easily believed by just a few words!
  It is true that there must be some people with noble morals and pure ideals in this world.

But such people are definitely a minority among the minority.

Moreover, they will never talk about their noble morals and ideals...

At this moment, after Tang Shigui said this, he glanced at Lu Yu with an expression that seemed to say: Am I noble? Come and praise me!

Lu Yu: "..."

This person's scheming doesn't seem that deep?
  "Brother Tang's noble moral character, I admire you endlessly. It's really amazing!" Lu Yu said.

"Haha, it's not that exaggerated, it's too much praise!" Tang Shigui smiled happily.

After entering Wubao, they soon came to a mansion.

Lu Yu got off the bullock cart and followed Tang Shigui into it.

When he first joined Taipingdao, Lu Yu was a little strange.

The reason why refugees became refugees was because they lost their land. Under the dual pressure of large rents and heavy taxes, they were unable to save food and fight against natural risks.

Therefore, when encountering force majeure, they can only abandon the land and wander around, looking for a way out.

If they have their own land and can save some food, they can survive even in the famine years and not be left homeless.

But when the refugees joined Taiping Road, they had land for farming!
  Then the problem is coming...

The land of Taiping Road.

Where did it come from?
  Those powerful landlords, even if they believe in Taiping Dao, will give them money and food, but they won't give them so much land, right?

The total number of people on Nanyang Taiping Road is close to [-]!
  How easy is it to feed so many people?
  Especially in such a famine year!
  As we all know, after Qu Shuai Zhang Mancheng came to Nanyang to preach with some troops, in just a few years, he had the current family business! Seriously!
  But now it seems...

Tang Shigui, a powerful son, also served as a deacon on Taiping Road.

The problems that confused Lu Yu were easily solved.

These powerful landlords not only support Taiping Road activities! He also directly invested in the shares!

This is also true.

Only in all states and counties across the country can Taiping Road develop so smoothly!
  Those truly noble and aristocratic nobles from wealthy families who stand at the top naturally look down on Taipingdao, but for those powerful people, it is completely different.

From this point of view, in the battle with the refugees a month ago, the reason why those powerful men could safely hand over their soldiers to Zhang Mancheng was also due to this aspect!
