Chapter two hundred and eighty fifth: Taohua Temple

At about noon the next day, outside the General's Mansion, Liu Bei slowly walked out, stepped on a war horse, and took eight soldiers to Yuan Tan's mansion.

Although today, the army is mobilized, and the proclamation of the anti-thieves has been well known, this is mainly the matter of the superiors. The people are still striving for three meals a day, and the city of Ye is still bustling as before.

But Liu Bei was riding a horse on the street and had no feeling of appreciation at all. His eyes were filled with longing and sadness. He looked up at the blue sky and murmured: "Second brother, third brother, are you okay?"

Although Yuan Shao respected him on the surface, Liu Bei knew in his heart that the other party was just treating him as a pawn. When would this situation of relying on others end? When would his two brothers return?

Not long after walking, when it was only two streets away from Yuan Tan's mansion, a tempting fragrance of flowers suddenly came into Liu Bei's nose. Liu Bei said unexpectedly: "Peach Blossoms"

After looking around, I saw a quiet temple not far from the left.

"Where is this? It's so strong that the fragrance of peach blossoms is." Liu Bei asked curiously. This smell was exactly the same as what he smelled when he and his second and third brothers had a feud in Taoyuan.

"Lord, this is Taohua Temple in Yecheng, a famous scenic spot. These thousand peach trees are planted in it. I heard that there is an old Taoist living here, and he is very good at fortune-telling," a team leader said immediately.

"Taohua Temple" Liu Bei was shocked and looked at the three words on the temple. A feeling of loneliness suddenly arose in his heart. He thought that although he had no place to live in the past few years, he had always followed him loyally, but now he is the only one.

"Master, do you want to go in and have a look?" the captain asked curiously.

Liu Bei was a little moved, but after remembering the place he was going to today, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, go to the eldest son first."

"No!" When Liu Bei was about to leave with his horse, the gate of Taohua Temple suddenly opened wide. An old Taoist priest with white hair and white beards in his hand, holding a whisk. He suddenly walked out, looked up at Liu Bei's back, frowned, and shouted: "This general, please stay."

Liu Bei was stunned, immediately grabbed the horse and said curiously: "Is the old Taoist priest calling me?"

"Really, please ask the general's name Gao's name." The old Taoist priest asked seriously.

Liu Bei immediately got off his horse and bowed to him, "I'm going to Liu Bei."

The old Taoist priest shrank his pupils and said, "But the great Han emperor's uncle, the governor of Yuzhou, and the left general Liu Bei."

"It's true" Liu Bei said.

The old Taoist priest hesitated for a while and said, "General, where are you going?"

Although Liu Bei was puzzled why the old Taoist priest cared about him so much, he still said: "Bei planned to go to the eldest son to thank him today."

After looking at the street in front of him, the old Taoist priest raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Look at the old Taoist, the general should not go."

"Why?" Liu Bei said in confusion.

"Forgive the old Taoist's words, the general was originally accompanied by dragons and tigers, and his luck was extraordinary, but today the dark clouds covered the dragon and the blood light dispersed the tiger. Only the old Taoist Taoist's Taohua Temple might be able to resolve this disaster." The old Taoist said seriously.

"Old Taoist, be arrogant." Hearing this, the captain next to him suddenly said angrily.

Liu Bei reached out to stop him and smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, but Bei never believed in these things. And even if there is a disaster, why can the Taoist priest be here?"

"Because there will be a distinguished guest here today. As long as he is here, the emperor's uncle will have no worries and he can escape this disaster." The old Taoist priest said.

"Oh! Who is it? Could it be Yuan Gong?" Liu Bei said curiously.

"It's not true. It's the planner of Yuan Gong's commander Tian Feng, Lord Tian, ​​the old Taoist was just practicing Zen, and suddenly felt palpitations. But just now, Lord Tian came to pay a message and calmed down again. When he went out, he happened to see the emperor's uncle. Seeing that your Yin Tang was black, there was a big disaster. Thinking about the beginning, maybe only Lord Tian can save the emperor's uncle," the old Taoist priest explained carefully.

Liu Bei frowned and said in confusion: "Why is Taoist Master so concerned about Bei?"

"The emperor's uncle is kind and loving to the people, and a kind heart shines everywhere. The old Taoist really can't bear to have any problems with you," the old Taoist priest said frankly.

After thinking for a long time, Liu Bei said, "Okay, Bei will disturb you."

Liu Bei did not believe in this kind of thing, but he didn't want to refuse the other party's kindness, but more importantly, he also wanted to have a good chat with Tian Feng, the northern leader.

"Lord, that's the side of Mr. Yuan Tan." Hearing this, the team leader asked anxiously.

"Just say that you have any physical problems today, and you will visit again the next day," Liu Bei ordered.

"promise!"

"Uncle Emperor, please," said the old Taoist priest with a smile.

"Thank you," Liu Bei led the soldiers and followed the old Taoist priest toward the Taohua Temple.

At this time, two men who had been following behind and carrying goods saw this scene and looked at Taohua Temple in surprise. They were just one step away. Who is this old Taoist priest? Why did he stop Liu Bei from going? Could it be that their affairs were leaked? But this is impossible!

Just when the two were anxious, a fast horse rushed over from a distance. After a servant dismounted, he apologized to the old Taoist priest who had just entered the door: "Master Li, my master has just been circulated by the lord. I can't come to visit today. I'll ask the Taoist priest to atone for his sins."

"What" the old Taoist priest's pupils shrank.

Liu Bei was also stunned. It seemed that the old Taoist priest had made a mistake. He slowly gently pulled back his right leg that had stepped into Taohua Temple and smiled bitterly: "Since Lord Tian has something to do, I won't leave much Bei anymore. I'll come to visit the Taoist priest another day."

The old Taoist priest looked at the threshold and said seriously: "Uncle, are you really not going to go in and take a look?"

"No, thank you Taoist priest. Bei Zheng has a long history of life and has long been aware of life and death. If it really comes, it will not be able to hide." Liu Bei smiled faintly and said boldly, then gave a polite gift, turned around and left directly.

Looking at the figure who stepped onto the war horse again, the old Taoist priest shook his head and murmured: "God's will, it's really God's will. The true dragon is about to be born. The hidden dragon abdicates and gives way to the wise. One step away, the strength of the energy can be seen to be high and low, and it cannot be stopped by human power."

"Master Li, what did you say?" the servant next to him asked curiously.

The old Taoist priest smiled bitterly and said, "Please tell Lord Tian that the old Taoist is going to travel abroad today, say goodbye."

The servant was stunned and confused, but he nodded.

After the old Taoist priest looked at Liu Bei's back for the last time, he shook his head and said softly: "Close the door"

"Yes, Master" two boys immediately slowly closed the door of Taohua Temple.

At this time, Liu Bei, who had left, also looked back at the gate that was gradually being confined. He felt inexplicably palpitations, but he still drove towards Yuan Tan's residence.
