"Because of this, she cannot be the one who sits on the king's seat." Rong Cheng glanced around, "I don't know when the High Envoy will have time, I want to discuss it with the High Envoy."
"Whether I have time depends on your reason for Qionglian's unreliability."
Rong Cheng smiled confidently: "She may be from the Yinshan League. Is this reason enough for Fellow Daoist Gui to spare time for me?"
Chapter 14 The Lost Dream 39→38
Gui Tangdong left the time tomorrow afternoon for Rong Cheng, and then returned to Xiapi Airport, the temporary residence of monks in Yangyan Mansion, to bring condolences to his juniors.
As soon as Gui Tangdong came to the shipyard, he saw Park Daoxian's muscular back. The burly man with a face like a gorilla scratched his short red hair from time to time, chatting with his familiar fellow 93.
93 is another extreme. He is petite and cute, with long black hair hanging down to his waist, like a little girl who has just grown up.
The two men set off each other's feeling of Beauty and the Beast. Seeing Gui Tangdong put down his work and greeted at the same time, there was still a trace of foreign local accent in his words.
Among the eight monks, Zhang San and Liu Tingfeng were born in the Central Plains, Bai Ya and Ji Jiaran were from the area under the jurisdiction of the Zhuzi Dufu in Dongying, and the rest of them, Pu Daoxian, 93, Mai Koujie, and You Bujian were all from the Sanhan area of Silla.
The monks have no concept of regional identity or national identity. They claim to be superior, and they identify with sects, academic groups, and interests.It is the concept of ascension, it is power, and it has long since thrown away the shackles of mortal concepts.
Park Daoxian and 93 are studying the camouflage shell of Liang Zong. It has become tattered, and the simple shipyard does not have the technology and materials to repair it, so Gui Tangdong ordered them to be dismantled for research——
He has already realized the magical effect of this kind of lightweight shell in resisting the attack of naval guns with a caliber below 130mm, and he played cards with his senior sister and Nan Qingxu so much, it would be so painful to take their helpless chasing soldiers later.
However, the CD of Hu Xuandong's "The Way of a Man" is very short, and it may have already been stolen by now, so Gui Tangdong recruited all eight juniors to join Ma Xin's research in his own name, starting with the dissertation.
The juniors have worked so hard, when the time comes, with the fruits of their labor, Gui Tangdong will write the beginning and the end, and include his battle with the Tuqishi Fleet (one-sided beating), and his academic task for this year will be completed.
In addition, the ship modification plan he designed to endow the Jackdaw with the spirit, the required props have been contracted and made by the juniors separately, and when they are all completed, they can be transported to the ship for modification in one go.
In the afternoon, when he assigned these two tasks to his juniors, none of them objected.Senior monks exploiting low-level monks and forcing them to work for themselves is a common scene in the eight sects——
Don't forget that the eight major sects are originally the eight major academic groups, knowledge is power, power is exchanged for power, and power makes them become academic masters.
As a time traveler, Gui Tangdong has a higher moral level. He adheres to the principle of equivalent exchange and compensates his juniors in other ways: such as personally pointing out the difficulties they encountered in practicing kung fu, giving them the resources they need for cultivation, and conducting combat training with them. .
Both parties were very happy, Gui Tangdong won several times, and also led his juniors to win together.The irony is that the juniors gave far more than they received, but they are still grateful to Gui Tangdong.
Because elsewhere, there is no money at all.
Gui Tangdong distributed the small snacks and beverages he made himself as a combination of condolences, and kindly expressed that they could work no more than eighteen hours a day in accordance with the "Monk Labor Law".
He returned to the boat, and Li Qingchuan went to take a bath. Gui Tangdong reminded his senior sister for the 10086th time that not every bathhouse with hot and cold water baths and sauna rooms is a bathhouse, which is a healing device designed by himself.
Li Qingchuan heard it, but pretended to forget it.She tugged at her collar and invited Gui Tangdong to take a bath, but after being rejected by Gui Tangdong, she asked him if he wanted to keep the bath water.
She is still brooding about him drinking Nan Qingxu's bath water.
The senior sister's yin and yang Xuanpin skills are quite high. After drinking her bath water, Gui Tangdong sees that Nan Qingxu's body is a cute and beautiful girl.So she dared to stay, but he didn't dare to drink.
After dismissing the troublesome senior sister, Gui Tangdong brought a cold drink and a meat box made of monster meat to find Nan Qingxu. Nan Qingxu was studying hard from the book. When she turned her head and saw the meat, she tailed She shook excitedly, but when she saw the drink with ice, her tail stood up and her hair exploded.
"With ice...slippery." She said with a pale face.
"It's just a joke between me and my senior sister. There are often such intimate jokes between us, so don't worry about it."
Gui Tangdong put down the plate, pulled a chair and sat opposite Nan Qingxu: "Let's take a rest first."
"Fellow Daoist Gui, is the situation very bad?" Nan Qingxu asked.
"It's not good, but don't worry too much, my personal future is not tied to this place."
"I will definitely master this knowledge as soon as possible and help you. This time, I don't want to lose anything."
Nan Qingxu looked at Gui Tangdong sincerely. Her loyalty and self-sacrifice warmed Gui Tangdong's heart.From yesterday to today, from Hu Xuandong to Xu Guo's corrupt situation to Qionglian's little story, his mind has been active for too long. Here in Nan Qingxu, he just wants to relax.
So, he lay on the table and looked at Nan Qingxu with his head tilted. Nan Qingxu was a little nervous. She thought something was wrong with Tangdong Gui, but when she got closer, she saw that he was just here to be lazy, so she let out a long sigh of relief. He pursed his lips and laughed.
"Fellow Daoist Gui, you look like a child," she said.
"Did it disappoint you?"
"No, it feels a little cute." Nan Qingxu clutched her chest, "In my heart, I suddenly had a desire to take care of the child. Fellow Daoist Gui..."
"Ok?"
"Can I touch your hair?" Nan Qingxu asked cautiously.
"As long as it doesn't turn into a chicken coop, it's up to you."
Nan Qingxu, who was full of food and drink, felt drowsy, or laziness welled up in her heart, she didn't want to do anything exhausting for the time being, so she followed Gui Tangdong's appearance and lay down on the table.
She slowly stretched out her hand, first with her fingers, then with the palm of her hand to lightly touch Gui Tangdong's hair, watching the black hair run through her fingers.
She gently pressed his temples with her thumb, Gui Tangdong raised his eyes to look at her, and then closed his eyes again.For no reason, Li Qingchuan suddenly remembered the lion raised by Emperor Liang Zong.
However, Fellow Daoist Gui is much more diligent than the lion, and he is not as sentimental as the lion. He belongs to Fellow Daoist Li, and Fellow Daoist Li also belongs to him.
what about me?To whom do I belong, and who belongs to me?
The moment this thought came up, loneliness and emptiness swept Nan Qingxu's heart, she withdrew her hand like an electric shock, patted her cheek, to stop herself from thinking about it.
Gui Daoyou loves Li Daoyou, and Li Daoyou also loves Gui Daoyou, they are a match made in heaven.Nan Qingxu said to herself, I am the watcher, and watching the happiness of the two will be enough...
I am no longer dreaming of someone sleeping next to me.
Chapter 15 Stress Kid
Gui Tangdong appeared in Xiapi, ready to deal with the news of the corrupt situation in Xu State, but overnight, it was passed on to the various forces occupying the territory of Xu State by the interested people in Xiapi City.
Yangyan Mansion is one of the sects that have the most contact with the world, and they never give up every opportunity to publicize the glorious deeds of the monks of this sect.Through brainwashing pyramid schemes, the concept of the common people has been reversed to "Yangyan Mansion = the most powerful".
In the past five years, Gui Tangdong has been the focus of Yangyan Mansion's publicity. Listening to his exaggerated and incredible resumes, in people's minds, Yangyan Mansion's senior brother has already booked a boat ticket to the immortal, or in other words, Gui Tangdong has already is a fairy.
When Xu State was in dire straits and people longed for the savior to come, "immortals" really appeared in the capital of Xu State. The mood of the people of Xu State can be imagined, and the feelings of various armed forces are also different.
In the north, after the Lu army with the crow army as the vanguard reported the situation to the king, only three hours later, the king's order to "stop advancing" was issued through the communication talisman.
The reason for stopping is because Linzi City, the secular territory east of Guitang, belongs to Qi State, and Qi State is the core secular territory of Yangyan Mansion.
Does the appearance of Guitangdong represent the will of Yangyan Mansion?If it is, then there is a high probability that Qi will join the war, and Lu will be the first to bear the brunt.
The State of Lu used to be a country ruled by the Sanxiu sect, but before that, a pair of elder brothers from Diliangzong married a pair of sister monks from the inner sect of Yangyan Mansion, which symbolized the strategic alliance between Yangyan Mansion and Diliangzong.
No matter which sect the couple stays in, it's not fair to the other sect.In order to resettle the two couples, their descendants, clansmen, and newly formed interest groups, the Jin State controlled by Di Liang Zong and the Qi State controlled by Yangyan Mansion jointly invaded Lu Di, seized the land in the east and west respectively, and distributed the land in the middle. The Xiumen sect reserve serves as a buffer zone.
The newly born State of Lu formed a peculiar scene jointly controlled by Di Liangzong and Yangyan Mansion. King Lu was just a mascot recommended by the resentful Sanxiu group. Although he was well taken care of, the courtiers representing the interests of all parties Everyone is a stress kid. If the mascot king does something wrong, he will be questioned why the king rebelled?
There are also differences between mascots and mascots. Ban, the prince of this generation of King Lu, is a puppet among puppets, and he is the concubine of the previous generation of King Lu.
Ai Jiang, the wife of the former King Lu, committed adultery with Qingfu, the younger brother of the previous King Lu. After Ai Jiang's husband died, she and her adulterer partnered to control the government and the public, and appointed son Ban as the new King Lu.Qing's father was originally the agent of the Lu State Loose Cultivation Group, but Liang Zong and Yangyan Mansion were too lazy to deal with such nonsense, so they acquiesced that son Ban became the king of Lu State.
Naturally, the actual ruler of the Lu Kingdom is Father Qing, and the people of the country—especially those who live in big cities—have a lot of opinions on the fact that the actual power holder is a scum who is adultering with his sister-in-law.
Father Qing himself is a representative of people who are addicted to vegetables. His previous opponents were too poor and weak, which caused him to have the illusion of "I am strong" when he won the battle. However, Xu State in the south fell into war, so Father Qing could take advantage of the fire and loot. To expand prestige and suppress the contradictory thoughts of the Chinese people.
People of insight among the courtiers advised that even if the State of Lu sends troops, it must use benevolence and righteousness as its banner to assist the State of Xu instead of invading it. From a strategic point of view, an alliance with the State of Xu can curb the influence of the State of Chu from projecting the demon sect to the north power, as well as the establishment of a buffer zone in the rising state of Wu (Four Seasons Palace) that also has the desire to expand.
From a personal point of view, Qingfu's evaluation among the people is already low. If he becomes an aggressor again, his stability will drop a lot.
Father Qing felt that it made sense, and after sending an assassin to kill the minister who said he had a bad reputation among the people, he betrayed the employment agreement signed with Zhu Xie Chixin, and paid off Zhu Xie Chixin's debts—the Crow Army has a wide range of businesses, and usury is also one .
The irony is that Qingfu was supported by Zhu Xie Chixin, who was the former's biggest creditor. Zhu Xiechixin and his elite were all behind Zhongli Mountain.
He confiscated the properties of the Crow Army's senior officials in the State of Lu, executed hundreds of Crow Army monks, or officials involved with them, and sent his cronies to break up the Crow Army's establishment and reorganization, and threw it into the Xu State battlefield.
The crow army can achieve results and improve his personal prestige. If the crow army fails, he can also eliminate the threat posed by this army. Anyway, using the wealth he won from the crow army, he can weave a new one in a few years. army.
Until the news of Gui Tangdong's appearance in Xiapi City reached Father Qing.
Father Qing's last impression of Guitangdong was still in Phoenix City of Liangzong in the north. It was true that Yangyan Mansion had arrived in Xiapi City without anyone noticing it. It was hard to believe that he was there for sightseeing.
Everyone knows that Guitangdong is a fan of blitzkrieg. Father Qing couldn't help imagining this scene: With the help of Lu Guoyang's Yanfu forces, Guitangdong's army set out from Linzi, destroyed the Great Wall and entered the pass, and blitzed Qufu all the way. , Take him back to Linzi City for trial.
Although Father Qing is a mortal, he is a high-ranking person after all. For him, being on trial is no less than breaking his spine in public. Moreover, I heard that after the trial in Linzi City, there will be a labor reform link. There are many heavy labors, such as Opening up wasteland, building roads, digging coal and mining, and cleaning up the waste in the city are all done by labor reform prisoners.
Sometimes, Qing's father wondered what kind of environment made Gui Tangdong torture people like this. If he was captured, he would rather be killed with a knife than spend the rest of his life murdered.
For this reason, he notified Ban, the Prince of Lu, to let the diplomats take action to find out the trend of Qi State, and focus on the situation of Linzi City.
In addition, the espionage personnel also took action, firstly to join the front line, secondly, to find ways to get in touch with the inner circle of Xiapi City, and to study the changes that Guitang East brought to Xiapi—especially the diplomatic and military changes, trying to avoid strategic Misjudgment.
Gui Tangdong's strength is determined, and a strategic misjudgment of him will have fatal consequences.Before Father Qing received Gui Tangdong's latest information, another piece of information from Xu Guo made him fall into deep thought——
On the same day that Guitangdong arrived in Xiapi, Hu Xuandong, the real biography of Bingjiamen, led the Tuqishi battle group into Song State's occupied area in Xu State, and fought with the three Ye Hus of the Ge Luolu Battle Group stationed there. Friendly exchange of door concepts.
Hu Xuandong won the battle, according to Bingjiamen's concept that the winner takes all, she seized all the magic weapons and cultivation bases of the three Ye Hus, and also served as Ye Hu of the Ge Luolu battle group.
The three Ye Hus turned back into mortals, and Hu Xuandong's skill soared to the perfection of the Golden Core. She immediately announced that she had handed over her natal weapon "Bi Ying" to Gui Tangdong, admitting that he was her old enemy.
No.16 Memories of Sulu 1
Su Lu witnessed Hu Xuandong's declaration at the scene. Her tone was calm, but what she said made her subordinates' blood boil. For the aggressive Bingjiamen monks, there is no better challenge than Gui Tangdong ( Open) fight (steal) the target... especially when they don't have to fight it themselves.
Su Lu may be the only monk who is not so excited, because she has not practiced the skills of Bingjiamen, and she is not even a member of Bingjiamen.
70 years ago, she had practiced to the Nascent Soul Realm, and almost immediately understood that her journey of cultivation had come to an end—her talent was limited, and she couldn't comprehend the skills to improve the Nascent Soul Realm.
With a little regret, she gave up the idea of continuing to be promoted. For the monks, the Nascent Soul Realm is already a quite "powerful" realm.
She still has 400 years of life, and she is determined to use this time to travel all over the mountains and rivers and see the vast world. At the same time, she adopts a gifted child and trains him as an heir.
She began to travel around the world, staying in each place for three to five days, or half a month, and the longest place she stayed for ten years.She has gone deep into the mortal world and experienced the various roles of mortal women in life.
Fifty years ago, she came to the border of Heokomon's secular territory, a Saracen city that was besieged for seven weeks. War, famine, and plague turned this place into hell.
It is common practice for Sulu to kill the siege soldiers casually, and then kill the defenders along the siege side. After entering the city, she passed through all kinds of miserable and horrible deaths. Suddenly, she found a weak man with a promising future. seedling.
She came to the scene and used a talisman to remove the stench in the air and the filth on the surface. With a flick of her finger, the jumping flame lit up and sealed off the surrounding space, trapping a skinny child in her field of vision.
The child pointed the stained knife at Su Lu. Su Lu moved his index finger, and the knife fell out of the child's hand. Immediately afterwards, an invisible force tore the child's robe, and the water flowed out of nothing to clean his body, and the gentle wind swept him away. Blow dry and put on brand new clothes.
After some tossing by Su Lu, the skinny child returned to the appearance of a little girl. She had no weapon in her hand, but her eyes were full of vigilance, like a little leopard under threat, trying to show her ferocity, but it only made people Feel superficial.
"Courage, but not wise." Su Lu took out the food, "You are very hungry."
Su Lu handed it to the little girl. The little girl stared at the food for more than ten seconds, licked her dry lips, and took the first step hesitantly, watching Su Lu for several seconds, followed by the next step...
The little girl walked sideways like a crab. She stopped every step and kept observing Sulu. At the limit distance, she leaned out on her toes and snatched the naan bread and water bag from Sulu's hand.
She unscrewed the water bag first and took a big gulp, then started to nibble on the naan bread, and while she was eating, she choked, slapped her chest in a hurry, took another big gulp of water, and ate the food into her stomach with difficulty.
Maybe the food in her stomach made her feel alive, and the little girl sobbed, but her body didn't have enough water for her to shed tears of joy or happiness.
She devoured the naan bread at hand, choking on it from time to time, and soon enough naan bread for an adult meal, and drank all the water.
The little girl's weak stomach protested, she squatted down clutching her stomach in pain, but grinned at the joy of birth, two completely different emotions made her ugly like a monkey.
"The city has been breached. You have no future if you stay here. Do you want to go with me?" Su Lu asked.
"..."
The little girl who ate the food changed from a beast to a civilized person after venting all kinds of extreme emotions. She surrendered to the powerful adults with the shyness and docility common at this age.
Su Lu smiled in satisfaction, a flame appeared in her palm, lighting up the pupils of the little girl's eyes, and the little girl took a step back in fright, making defensive movements.
"Don't be afraid, this is just a small ceremony, to confirm the compatibility between you and the exercises I have practiced, I plan to accept you as a disciple, trust me, it won't hurt."
Su Lu's kindness, plus the relief of naan bread and water bags won the little girl's initial trust. After all, she is a child. As long as she feels some kindness, she will feel that she has something to rely on, and she will rush towards it like a moth to a flame.
So, she walked towards Sulu, looked at the flame above her head in fear, and asked in a low voice, "Are you a monk?"
"Yes."
"Are you with the people who besieged us outside?"
"No." Sulu replied.
She said softly: "Papa said that someone killed the messenger they sent, so the army in black armor turned into a scourge.
Everyone I knew... everyone, friends, loved ones, everyone died.Why?Obviously not the one we killed. "
The 10-year-old child couldn't think of the answer, and the 10-year-old child couldn't understand the answer either. Su Lu sighed and changed the subject: "What's your name?"
"Laila."
"Do you want to be a monk like me?"
Laila glanced at the place that used to be her home, the scorched marks of the fire, the handprints of the desperate on the wall, the stacked father, mother and younger brother in a small corner, and now they are all small. small bunch...
She turned her head and nodded heavily, when Su Lu's hand was about to press on top of her head, a low voice came from beside her——
"Move your hands away."
