Chapter 357 Roadside Inn
"Senior Brother, it's getting late, so I'd better find a place to take a break before rushing. With Master Xuannan and his team taking care of Senior Brother Su Xinghe, there should be no problem. No matter how anxious we are, we won't be in such a hurry." Xu Zhu, who was running wildly in front of him, paused and stopped, "Well, Junior Brother Luo, it's okay if you don't say it. Once you say it, I feel a little hungry. Let's listen to you. Find a place to make some supper first!"
After coaxing and deceiving Xu Zhu, he finally helped Xu Yang to the position of the head of Xiaoyao Sect, Su Xinghe relaxed and personally took the pulse of the Shaolin monks of Xuan Nan, and then told Xu Zhu that if he tried his best, he would be sure to suppress the toxins on Xuan Nan and the others so that it would not completely attack within twenty days.
Although twenty days were not enough to make Xu Zhu run back and forth from Leigu Mountain to Tianshan, it was more than enough to run a one-way trip. Xu Zhu felt a little relieved, but he was pure and kind-hearted, and he was afraid that something unexpected would take place on the road would delay time and harm Xuan Nan and others' lives.
So, after discussion, Luo Yuchen went on the road with him and rushed to Tianshan to seek medicine. Su Xinghe, Xue Muhua and others took care of Xuannan and others and followed. As for Meng Dong, he wanted to go back to Xingsuhai early to accept the mission of the head sect, so the group simply parted ways.
Let's not worry about the other two roads. Just talk about Luo Yuchen's side, he and Xu Zhu came down from Leigu Mountain at noon, and it was almost dusk. Xu Zhu's kid suddenly gained all the internal strength that Wu Yazi had been practicing throughout his life. It can be said that he had reached the sky in one step. Although he didn't feel much, Luo Yuchen, who was watching, knew that even though he had not used any advanced light skills, Xu Zhu's speed of traveling would not allow the galloping horse at all...
If you calculate the course, in one afternoon, the two had already driven out at least a hundred miles away. Xu Zhu had a deep inner strength and still didn't feel much. Luo Yuchen was a little tired. Moreover, he felt that there was a "tail" behind the two who had not been solved, so Luo Yuchen could only speak and stop. Fortunately, Xu Zhu was still "responsible". The two slowed down and paid attention to the buildings on the roadside while walking. After a while, a roadside inn appeared in their sight.
"Shopkeeper, we will prepare a table of wine and food for us. We will entertain guests later. Oh, by the way, cut a few kilograms of cooked meat first, and then put a pot of good wine. Let's put our stomachs first!" As soon as we entered the inn hall, Luo Yuchen spoke first and ordered a table of hearty wine and food. Xu Zhu was wondering what customers he was going to entertain, but suddenly he found that the large number of dishes that Luo Yuchen ordered were all meat dishes. Subconsciously, he said, "Well, let's cook two bowls of vegetarian noodles for me, so you can't even get any oil stars..."
"Let's go!" The shopkeeper behind the counter was about to agree, but Luo Yuchen stretched out his hand and pulled Xu Zhu's sleeve: "Senior brother, you have already returned to secular life, why do you still have to eat vegetarian food? It's better to avoid it!"
"This?" Xu Zhu was slightly stunned, his face turned slightly red, and he showed a little shame. He subconsciously turned to look at the other guests in the store. Fortunately, the dining room in this inn hall was all very far away. Except for the shopkeeper in front of him, everyone else was far away. He did not hear Luo Yuchen's words, nor did he turn his head to look at him with a strange look. Xu Zhu then secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said to Luo Yuchen with some embarrassment: "Junior brother, we are not talking first, we have to wait until the things in front of us are resolved smoothly, and when I return to the temple to report to the commander, will we officially return to secular life? Therefore, I still have to abide by the precepts now."
"Or, otherwise!" Luo Yuchen shook his head repeatedly, and saw Xu Zhu's discomfort. After winking at the shopkeeper, he pulled Xu Zhu and sat down on an empty table near the door. Then he pointed to the gem ring in Xu Zhu's hand and said, "Senior Brother, although you have not officially returned to secular life, it is only one ceremony. In fact, your current identity is no longer a Shaolin disciple, but the head of our Xiaoyao Sect!"
"But..." Without letting Xu Zhu defend himself, Luo Yuchen shook his head again and interrupted him: "There is nothing but a question. I will only ask you one thing. Among the rules and regulations of Shaolin Temple, is there any one that allows Shaolin disciples to join other sects without authorization or even serve as the heads of other sects?"
"Ah, this?" Xu Zhu was shocked all over his body, and then he remembered that in the Shaolin precepts, not only did Shaolin disciples not allow them to join other sects, but they were explicitly prohibited! After Xu Zhu was shocked, he was stunned and looked gloomy and nervous: "This, I have already violated the precepts, I have already violated the precepts..."
"Oh, senior brother, I remember that Master had already dissolved the Shaolin Kung Fu on you before he passed on the merits to you. Now you have made up your mind to return to secular life. So, whether it is the external body or the inner thoughts, you have no Shaolin mark. Why do you stick to the rules of Shaolin?" Xu Zhu was shocked again and murmured to himself: "Whether it is the external body or the inner thoughts, there is no Shaolin mark?"
"Yes, aren't you Buddhists the most important thing? You are determined to return to secular life now, so how can you be considered a monk? Unless your motive is not pure, your previous promise is not from your original intention, but to just talk about it, to deceive us!" Xu Zhu was shocked and shook his head quickly: "No, no, junior brother, you misunderstood. My previous promise was definitely sincere and I definitely did not deceive you!"
Luo Yuchen laughed secretly, but he didn't mean to let Xu Zhu go. Just then, at this time, the waiter who was delivering the dishes came up with a large plate of braised pork. Luo Yuchen's eyes flashed slightly and he pressed step by step: "Okay, senior brother, since you haven't deceived us, please show it with practical actions!"
"Practical action?" Xu Zhu was slightly stunned, and saw Luo Yuchen stretching out his chopsticks straight, picking up a large piece of cooked meat and putting it into his mouth, chewing it beautifully. He then realized: "You asked me..., you, me, I..." After a long time of incoherence, the struggle on Xu Zhu's face finally faded away. He saw him slowly picking up a piece of fat meat, closing his eyes, frowning and slowly putting it into his mouth. He chewed it a little, and soon stretched his neck and swallowed it forcibly!
"I, uh...wow..." The first time I ate meat, I might be too fatter, of course it was more likely to be psychological. As soon as I swallowed that piece of fat, Xu Zhu felt nauseous and bent down to the corner of the table, and kept retching. However, his stomach was empty now. After eating a piece of fat, he didn't even have a bottom, so it was impossible for him to vomit it out again. Seeing this, Luo Yuchen laughed, took a big bowl, poured a bowl of wine and handed it over, "Hehe, senior brother, come on, drink a sip of water to suppress the stomach!" Xu Zhu was dizzy when he was retching. After taking it, he didn't pay attention to distinguishing it. He just took a big sip...
"Ahem, this, this is wine, cough cough..." After a violent cough, his attention might have been diverted, and Xu Zhu stopped being nauseous and dry retching, but his face was already red. I don't know if it was caused by the alcohol or the psychological fluctuations.
"Isn't it the same as wine? It can quench your thirst anyway! Besides, there are no children in the world who can't drink?" Luo Yuchen smiled slightly and picked up his wine bowl, "Come on, senior brother, I'll toast you!" This time, Xu Zhu no longer resisted, and directly picked up the wine bowl. After touching Luo Yuchen gently, he raised his neck and drank the remaining wine in one gulp.
Putting down the wine bowl, he coughed violently again, and tears flowed down. After a while, Xu Zhu wiped away his tears, as if he had really figured it out. There was no need for Luo Yuchen to persuade him to drink and eat food. He just drank a big bowl and ate meat in big mouthfuls, and he looked like a monk with wine and meat...
"Uh, this, I wouldn't be too hasty. This is one of the three protagonists of "Tianlong". If I trained me to become a wine monk, it would be great. My mission is still on him..." Luo Yuchen was stunned and reflecting on his past, but Xu Zhu took the initiative to hold the wine bowl and said, "Junior brother, you are right. Since my original intention has been restored to secularity, it will be in vain no matter how you abide by the rules and regulations. It would be better to let go earlier. Well, come on, I'll give you a bowl, thank you for your guidance!"
Luo Yuchen looked up and saw that although Xu Zhu's face was red, his eyes were extremely clear. Obviously, his consciousness was still completely awake. Thinking about it, this kid had been in vain for seventy or eighty years of Wuyazi's internal strength, so how could he be so easily drunk?
"So, he has really realized his enlightenment?" Luo Yuchen had a mechanical drink with Xu Zhu. However, a ridiculous thought came out in his mind: "Hey, I didn't expect that this kid's 'intellectual' would be pretty good. You said, if I took him around the place where he cuddled with Hong Yicui again, wouldn't this kid immediately completely cut off the idea of continuing to become a monk?"
"Forget it, even at this level in front of you, it is already very destructive. Let the 'lifelong event' of the wine and meat monk be left to the Tianshan Tonglao to arrange it..." After looking at Xu Zhu, who was chewing on the case and having no image, Luo Yuchen shook his head weakly. The next moment, his face suddenly changed, and he turned to the shopkeeper behind the counter and said, "Okay, shopkeeper, the hot dishes I want can be served!"
