Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 719: Lu Tai
Golden Dragon 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 carp swimming in the water.
Lu Tong and Wan Miaonian were sitting on the couch.
Lu Tong raised his hand and handed over a cup of tea and said: "Thank you, fellow Taoist."
Wan Miaonian was not polite. He took it and drank it in one sip, with a smile on his face.
"Good tea."
"Three Treasures Tea, I will ask someone to pack a few kilograms of it later."
Three Treasures Tea is a medicinal tea made from the energy of the Three Treasures.
Lu Tong refilled the tank and asked: "Has Lu Tai ever encountered danger when traveling?"
"Of course."
Wan Miaonian drank the tea in one gulp again.
Lu Tong directly pushed the teapot over.
While recalling, Wan Miaonian took the teapot and thought for a while. She didn't speak again until she finished her third cup of tea.
"I met an evil cultivator, it seems that I was in Li State. Lu Tai and the local monks went into the mountains to arrest people, and fell into the trap of the evil cultivator, and were almost killed."
"You took action?"
"No, he has many treasures. He killed himself out. Even the few monks who went into the mountain together were dead. When Lu Tai sent the body back, he was made things difficult for him."
Lu Tong nodded slightly and said, "What else?"
The little blue bird brought elixirs and fruits.
"I also met bandits once."
Wan Miaonian grabbed a handful of elixir, shook his head and said: "No, it's not a bandit, it should be a mountain man who occasionally acts as a bandit. Lu Tai stayed overnight when he passed by and was drugged. He is too experienced. Young Master, I saw that the people in the mountains were honest-looking and low-cultivated, so they were completely unprepared. If I hadn’t taken action, I would have been in trouble that time.”
"Thank you."
Lu Tong pinched a purple sesame fruit grown in Baorong.
Wan Miaonian followed and arrested a few, and said: "There was another time in the country of Zi. The country has strict laws and clear hierarchy. Lu Tai met a group of people with wine bags and rice bags, and drank two glasses of wine together, talking nonsense. Why is this country so lawless and powerful on the outside but on the inside? Someone reported it and I was also arrested."
Lu Tong smiled and shook his head.
Reading Lu Tai’s book is not in vain.
Surgery and law are different.
Inside the art, all the people are transformed unconsciously, and all the people follow its path. Liangyao Zhengguo established the trend of Liangyao through preaching, teaching, changing utensils, etc., which is the art of enlightenment.
The law is outside, and there are decrees and envoys for all people. No matter how strict the laws of this country are, they can only restrain the hands and feet, but cannot control the mind.
"How to escape?"
"There is no other way. The real people in the country are too powerful. I am no match. I had to tell them Lu Tai's identity. Finally, a man named Ding Taibao summoned me, asked some questions and let us go."
"Ding Chu, is he a baby?"
"It's done."
"What else?"
Lu Tong took out a pot of wine.
Wan Miaonian stared at the wine pot and said: "Lu Tai may have suffered a little in prison, but he became more sensible later and has never had any trouble."
Lu Tong was a little surprised, pushed the jug over and said, "Didn't you have it when you were in Shang Lin Kingdom?"
"No."
Wan Miaonian took the jug, took a few sips from the jug, and said, "Shanglin's Taoism is prosperous, and Lu Tai has no intention of doing anything else. He goes around making friends with Taoists every day."
Lu Tong frowned, waited for Wan Miaonian to finish drinking, and asked: "Where is Wang's concubine? How did Lu Tai know her?"
"That boy Lu Tai..."
Wan Miaonian smiled and smacked her lips. When she saw Lu Tong frowning, she calmed down a little and said, "Lu Tai is lucky. The princess is the daughter of the lord of Guangping City. Many people are pursuing her secretly. In the end, I just fell in love with him. I suspect that he must have revealed his identity in private, otherwise..."
"Who is the city lord?"
"Huh?"
"Who is the lord of Guangping City?"
Dian Si'er has been asking about the situation of Shang Lin Country. Since Dian Si'er became the Demon Lord, there has been less and less news about Shang Lin Country.
Wan Miao thought: "Wang Jieheng, his title is 'Guangfa Ruilin'."
Lu Tong lowered his eyelids.
The higher-ranking officials of Shanglin Kingdom are Tianlin, Longlin, and Ruilin. Wanyi was originally Ruilin. Later, he opened up the business routes of dozens of countries and was promoted to "Sunchuan Dragon Scale".
"Where is the city lord's wife?"
"I've never seen it, and I've rarely heard of it. There are rumors that it's a big deal."
Lu Tong thought for a while and said, "In your opinion, what is Wang Bei's concubine like?"
"Very good. Although she is the daughter of the city lord, she is not arrogant at all. She is very kind and seems to have never been angry."
After finishing speaking, Wan Miaonian calmed down and said: "A son of a country lord and a daughter of a city lord, they live in simple clothes and eat only food every day, and they teach together in a small private school. They are a perfect match."
Lu Tong fell into silence. After a few breaths, he took out a bottle of wine and took a sip.
"What else?"
"No more, the rest are just trivial matters that I can't finish talking about."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Wan Miaonian stood up and left.
Lu Tong called the little blue bird and said: "Go and get five kilograms of fresh Sanbao tea to give to Master Wan."
"Yes."
……
At night.
In Fushou Palace, all the usually bright lanterns were extinguished, and two large flags were hung in front of the bright colorful glass.
A few side dishes were placed on a round table in the palace.
Lu Tong sat alone at the table.
"Sit."
"Thank you, father."
Lu Tai and Wang Pinfei bowed together and sat down one after another.
Lu Tong glanced at his son, looked sideways at Wang Concubine, and asked: "Concubine Bein, I heard that your father is the lord of the city?"
"Yes."
"When you got married, Tai'er was just a wife in a small private school. Why did your father agree to the marriage?"
Wang Pinfei looked at Lu Tai.
Lu Tai said: "Father, Concubine knows my identity. Not long after we met, Concubine told me privately, and..."
Lu Tai took a breath and said: "The concubine is from the ancestral family. I...I have also met her biological aunt."
Lu Tong was very surprised. He looked at the two of them back and forth and already guessed the identity of the man.
"Who?"
Lu Tai and Wang Pinfei looked at each other.
Lu Tai said: "Sunchuan Dragon Scale 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 really enemies, they would have been discovered long ago. She also said that she did something wrong back then and always wanted to apologize to her father, but she was worried that he would not Forgive me, but you want me to help intercede."
Lu Tong reached for the wine bottle.
Wang Pinfei immediately stood up, picked up the wine bottle, and walked to the side to pour the wine.
Lu Tai continued: "Concubine took the initiative to approach me after being instructed by my aunt. Later, Concubine secretly told me the truth."
Lu Tong drank a glass of wine.
"Gone?"
"Also, my aunt taught me a skill called "Eight Kirin Techniques", including concealment, metamorphosis, spirit armor, soul-catching, etc. My aunt also said that I can achieve Nascent Soul in no time, and I will personally Come see father."
Lu Tai talked about his aunt, and Lu Tong was upset when he heard that, and said: "You know that Wang Bei has bad intentions when she approaches, and you still take the bait?"
Concubine Wang Pin stood beside her holding a wine bottle, her face quickly turning red.
"Father, I..."
Lu Tai stood up and stopped Wang from marrying the concubine, saying: "Father, my concubine is not the kind of person you think. The affection between us has nothing to do with our ancestral family, our father, or the two countries. Besides... ”
Lu Tai hesitated.
Lu Tongtong: "Besides what?"
Lu Tai hesitated again, gritted his teeth and said, "I heard from my mother that when she met my father, she was not aboveboard."
Lu Tong was stunned for a moment and slowly grinned.
"Very good, making progress."
Lu Tai took half a step back, but when he saw Wang Beinfei next to him, he gritted his teeth and kept looking at Lu Tong.
After a few breaths, Lu Tong slowly withdrew his eyes.
"Eat."
……
Half a month later, night falls.
Lu Tai entered the Purple Air Palace alone and said: "Father, I will go to the Shangfeng Tower tomorrow to take up the post of tower master. I came here specifically to say goodbye to my father and hope that my father will take care of himself."
"Wang Bei Fei is also going together?"
"Yes."
Lu Tong pondered for a moment and said: "We will set off later tomorrow. There is a young lady from Bu's family named Bu Shigao. She will go to Shangfeng Tower with you."
"Father, what is Miss Bu's going to do?"
"Whatever the king does to his concubine, she will do."
"Father, this..."
Lu Tai's eyes widened and he cupped his hands and said, "Tai'er has no intention of doing this. Please ask father to recall this person!"
Lu Tong was silent for a while and said, "Do you think I gave it to you?"
Lu Tai was a little confused.
Lu Tong took a breath and said: "Your mother begged you for the Bu Shi Gao, do you understand?"
Behind Bu Shi Gao is the Bu family. The Bu family has the method of refining weapons and the "Secret Demon Fate Body Kung Fu". They also have a force in Baishan and have a deep relationship with the Feiyang Chamber of Commerce.
The current Bu family is no less impressive than the Jue family.
Lu Tai thought for a while, and gradually understood the meaning behind it, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
Lu Tong stood up from the couch, walked towards Lu Tai, and said, "If you want to fight, keep fighting to the end, and fight for everything you can."
"I..."
Lu Tai was about to speak.
Lu Tong interrupted directly and said: "The fight for position is the fight for life. You must use all means, overt and covert, good and evil. If you can't make a move, then give up as soon as possible to avoid harming others and yourself in the end. ”
Lu Taitong's eyes shrank, showing a hint of flinching.
Lu Tong patted Lu Tai on the shoulder and said: "The same goes for Wang's concubine. Behind her are Shanglin Kingdom, Wanyao Chamber of Commerce, Zujia, and Guangping City. Make her be used by you."
Lu Tai was restless and slowly lowered his head.
Lu Tong turned around and returned to the couch and said: "Go, your mother is gone. No one will protect you from the wind and rain in the future. You can only do some things by yourself."
Lu Tai stood for a long time, let out a long sigh, bowed down and said: "Tai'er understands, take care of yourself, father."
……
After a storm, life returned to calm.
Year after year, the population of Liangyao Zhengguo has become increasingly prosperous, and its commerce has become increasingly prosperous. The appearance of each city has changed drastically, and several fairy cities that look like heavenly palaces have appeared one after another.
Bowang City is now the fourth largest city in Liangyao Zhengguo.
The Liangyao Tower, the tallest building in the city at that time, is no longer eye-catching. There are nine more giant towers in the sky around it. The giant towers are connected to each other by stairs, bridges, etc., and there are suspended pavilions floating on the left and right.
In one of the pavilions.
Lu Tong and Zhang Qiao sat together.
Zhang Qiao said: "Master, it starts in a quarter of an hour."
"Yeah."
Lu Tong's appearance did not change at all, and his eyes became darker.
A quarter of an hour later, clouds and mist billowed around the pavilion, and a person stepped on **** of colorful smoke rising out.
"Everyone has been waiting for a long time! Today is "The Way of Heaven can be rectified, please sit back and enjoy!"
The colorful clouds rolled up, covering the figures, and gradually spread out into a colorful water curtain that was a hundred feet long and sixty feet high.
"Winter, winter, winter!"
The sounds of hammer drums, short drums, transverse flutes, festival boards and other music sounded together.
Various colors flow in the water curtain, transforming into figures, scenery, mansions, etc. As the scenery gradually becomes clearer, the sound of music slowly falls.
The figures moved around and several voices sounded one after another.
"Young, whose beauty is this? How come the young master has never seen her before?"
In the water curtain, a promiscuous young master stopped a woman. The woman dodged in all directions while the young master chased after her.
"Brothers, come together!"
A group of strong men came out and surrounded the woman.
In the room opposite the water curtain, Lu said: "Is this a water shadow play?"
"Yes."
Zhang Qiao looked solemn.
Lu Tongtong: "Eradicating violence and bringing peace to the good, and rejoicing in grudges and grudges are all tricks that make people entertained. What's so strange about it?"
"The play is not strange, what is strange is the Prime Minister in the play."
"Chengguo?"
Lu Tong has been in seclusion for a long time and has never heard the name of this country.
“It was a small country ten years ago, but now it has become a big country.”
Zhang Qiao took out a stack of books and said: "This is the script of Shuiying Play. All the plays take place in the Kingdom of Cheng. The protagonist and officials in the play live and eat together with ordinary people. The officials are upright. Every play is They are all seeking justice."
In the water curtain, the dissolute young master just now has returned to his residence.
The name "Zhang Mansion" is hung on the door of the residence, but it looks like the mansion is just an ordinary courtyard, not really a mansion, much worse than a floating pavilion.
Lu Tong blinked and looked more solemn.
"Does anyone believe it?"
"A lot. In the past five years, the Prime Minister has annexed three small countries in succession. Each time, the people of other countries took the lead in rebelling, and the Prime Minister took advantage of the situation to destroy the country."
"Who is the leader of the country?"
"White Spear~IndoMTL.com~ came from the land of ancient immortals. It was not very eye-catching before, but it suddenly became popular in the past few years."
"Everyone is equal..."
Lu Tong looked towards the water curtain.
In the middle of the scene, the master, wife, and young master of the Zhang family, as well as the strong man and maid who had just taken action, were sitting at the same long table eating.
He was a little skeptical and said: "Is this true or false?"
Zhang Qiao sighed and said: "It's true. I sent someone to inquire and found out that Bai Mao lived in a tile-roofed house and ate and drank at street stalls every day. Bai Mao's wife raised silkworms and weaved cloth herself. ”
Lu Tong looked troubled.
The human heart is hard to come by, but once you win it, 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 everyone in the Cheng Kingdom like this?"
"Almost."
Lu Tong slowly shook his head and said: "Impossible. You are born with such a beautiful heart. After finally becoming an official, cultivating a real person, and even eating and living with ordinary people, isn't it a waste of time?"
"Lord, this is the truth."
"This is the case now, but it may not be the case in the future."
Zhang Qiao said: "Then... we don't want to take action yet?"
"Where is the Prime Minister?"
"South of Ji State and northwest of Zang State."
"Don't be in a hurry."
Lu Tong stood 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 it."
……
A few more years have passed.
In the Purple Air Palace, the little blue bird entered the palace and said: "The Lord of the Kingdom, the Lord of the Palace wants to see you."
"Bring it in."
Lu Tong's method of convergence.
Jue Tianniu entered the palace and said: "Master, I have something to report. There have been frequent murders and robbery of wealth recently, and I have to take care of it."
"What?"
"Related to Feiyang, Shouzheng and other chambers of commerce."
