Chapter 491: The sky is bright and the old things are peaceful
The morning sun rose to the sun, bringing warmth. In the distant foothills, cicadas crowed one after another, and there was a little vitality in the quiet ruins.
Lu Liangsheng received the three books bequeathed by Lu Yuan, especially the last one. Although it is not a magical magic method, he can find out what may happen in the future.
Even if there are any clues, if used properly, it can prevent problems before they happen.
"Come here again and renovate it." Putting the book away from the Yin and Yang sleeves, Lu Liangsheng looked at the desolation around him, and his eyes fell on the ginseng fruit tree that was originally in the backyard.
"Especially, she should be properly placed. If she is used, there will be endless troubles in the future."
Looking at the towering tree for a while, Lu Liangsheng turned around and looked at the Qingfeng Taoist boy who was following him.
"You are more familiar with this place, and you also know that your master has left behind those barriers. You take care of them or re-activate them. Don't ask others to find the Five Colors Village. After everything is done, come to Chang'an City Wanshou Temple to find me. Are you willing?"
"Well, Qingfeng listened to the orders of the gentleman."
Seeing that he was obedient and well-behaved, Lu Liangsheng reached out and touched his head, but he felt it was not suitable and hung his hand down. The catastrophe disappeared and he felt much more relaxed.
I took a deep breath and looked at the people around me, as well as the master.
"Let's go back to Chang'an, and then... hold a banquet, thank you for your help."
When they raised their sleeves and bowed to them, the bookshelf that had been placed in the corner was shaking. With a bang, "The Endless Mountains and Seas" fell out. When they opened the page, they saw a yellow light flashing, showing a majestic man, who opened his head and looked back and forth with a nervous expression.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, old toad, the great catastrophe of heaven and earth is coming...Huh? Where is this? Why are there so many people?"
The Toad Taoist slapped his face with a webbed, feeling that it was embarrassing to have such an old friend.
Hahaha--
Around him, Zhu Gangli, Yan Chixia, Yuwen Tuo, and Qiyou laughed loudly, Shelong twitched his mouth and forced himself to hold it down. Li Sui'an on the other side laughed the most, covered his stomach and squatted to the ground, and slapped the ground twice.
"Ouch...hiss..."
Li Sui'an suddenly shook his hand. He must have just slapped the sharp broken brick. He blew and jumped in pain, causing the old donkey to scream, as if mocking him.
Soon, Lu Liangsheng called everyone to go on the road and headed back towards Chang'an to the east.
...........
"drive--"
The evening breeze was soft, and the swaying branches were slightly shaking, and a loud shout suddenly blew away. In the swaying direction, several horse-riding figures were whipping their whips and galloping along the winding mountain road from far to near.
"Your Highness, there is a tea shop in front of you."
A knight in a pair of sleeves hunting uniforms slowed down and shouted to the back. A young man in the middle tied the reins and yelled "thumbs up". He looked at the roadside with blue and white flags floating on the blue side, and a tea shed stood there and a lively voice came from there.
"Well, let everyone go and rest for a while!"
It was midsummer and the weather was hot. There were many business trips on the roadside wild shops. Passers-by rested and did not know them, and they could talk about them after talking about what they saw and heard from other places.
"......Oh, I was born with a strange phenomenon. That day, I happened to go to the toilet. The sky suddenly became red, just like a person standing in the burning clouds. The thing, a piece of big thing, hung on my head. My dog didn't dare to bark, and his tail was squeezing into the nest and couldn't come out."
"That's true. I was also selling goods on the way. The caravan who was looking at it was real. They also saw a dragon and smashed the thing. They also saw a person standing on it."
The guy listened to the random talk of several guests at the table, shook his head and wiped a table. What these people said, he didn't see anyway. He finished his work that day and slept too hard and didn't pay attention at all.
After walking outside and twisting a rag, a group of eight people were coming from a distance with their war horses. They smiled quickly and greeted them, "What are you going to eat? Although our store is simple, herbal tea and rice cakes should be... "
After greeting the food and refreshments, he invited the other party to sit down, and diligently wiped the table again, ran to pour tea and pick up the cakes.
In the tea shed, a merchant who had been talking to herbal tea before took a sip of herbal tea, wiped the sweat stains on his forehead, and continued:
"Oh... I heard people say that it is called a demon star. It will come out in troubled times. I don't know how long this day will last."
Bang!
Someone slapped the table, scaring the pedestrians around him. The vendors jumped and turned their heads. The eight people who had just entered the tea shed glared and slapped the table with beards on the table, holding the hilt of the knife in their other hand, scolding angrily.
"What a sign of troubled times? Don't talk nonsense. Be careful of the blade in my hand that cuts your barking dog's head."
"Put the knife back."
Among the seven people standing, a young man dressed in a warrior sipped tea and pressed his hands to both sides. The seven people in hunting uniform said respectfully: "Yes!" The swords all returned to the sheath and sat down again.
The guy came over carefully, put the tea and pastries on the table one by one, stared at the weapons on the waists of the people, and squeezed and smiled: "The eight guests, don't be involved. These are all rough men. They are used to traveling around the world, are vulgar and nonsense. Don't get angry. If you fight, the shop can't stand it, and you have no place to eat."
Most of the guys who make a living in the store are eloquent. The humorous words not only give eight people face, but also flatter them.
It means that they are all talking nonstop and talking nonsense. You eight are obviously heroes and have outstanding martial arts skills. If they fight, the ground will be covered with blood and corpses, and there are no other intentions to have a meal.
"Haha, the guy is right. My subordinates are really a little irritable."
The young man waved his hand, sent the friend away, and smiled at the somewhat panicked traveler over there, "Okay, everyone, let's have a meal. It's a fate to meet in the world. After eating, they will go their own way."
Hearing this, the people on the other side felt relieved and continued to eat cakes and tea. For a moment, the shed was filled with rumbling sounds of drinking water and chewing cakes. After eating, they hurriedly settled the account and drove the donkey to drive the car to leave quickly, fearing that the eight people in the store would pull out their knives again.
There was only eight people left in the shed. Among them, the young man who had spoken before was Yang Guang. He had actually heard what these people were talking about. He also saw a strange phenomenon in the sky in Luoyang that day. When he saw the flying to Chang'an, he was so scared that he set off overnight, fearing that something might happen to his father.
Even if there is something unexpected, come back first and there is always room for maneuver.
After a while of rest, Yang Guang took seven guards and set off again, followed the shortcut to Chang'an and rushed into the east gate of the city before sunset.
After entering the city, he got off his horse and walked along, walked through the chaotic streets and the hustle and bustle markets, and people came and went, and the peddlers with candied haws shouted and walked past them. Under the eaves on both sides, there were tea shops and restaurants, and the idle people gathered together and whispered to what happened the day before yesterday.
"It's hard to say about this kind of thing. The demon star in the sky is not a good sign."
"Yes, but I think it's nothing big. After all, with the national teacher here, otherwise such a big demon star would have smashed Chang'an long ago."
"Oh, it's scary to think about it. If it hits it, we'll all be dead."
"If you die, die. We are just ordinary people. It's nothing if you die... Forget it, let alone these mysterious ones, say something else."
"...... A few days ago, I saw a frog, only half of it was left by the wheels, jumping around and running around. Do you think it's strange?"
.........
The evening breeze blew, and Yang Guang, who had walked through the hustle and bustle street, entered the palace, handed the horses to the gatekeepers to take care of them, and asked the guards to wait outside the palace, and had their faces tidy up and strode up the stone steps.
He came back from Luoyang for a long time and rushed over before he could go back to the Jin Palace to wash up to see if his father was safe. Of course, it was the best if nothing happened.
On the way, I heard that the thing he saw, which was called a demon star, was indeed so huge that it was unimaginable that humans could destroy it, and how it would disappear in the end was probably still trying to figure it out.
‘…I hope Mr. Lu did it, but I don’t know if he is in the city.’
The sunset gradually disappeared to the west and clouds fell. Yang Guang walked past the brightly lit area and stood at the front door. The eunuch who was reporting was carrying his robe and jogging quickly into the study room of the Wenzhao Palace.
"Your Majesty! The King of Jin is back."
The lights were dim. The old man sitting in the dragon case to handle the memorial raised his head. He was a little listless. I don’t know if it was because of the rain and cold wind that day. However, when he heard his son coming back, his face was still a little confused. He looked at the clan brother who was accompanying the seat on the lower side.
The latter put down a roll of bamboo slips and smiled and said, "It seems that our King of Jin is very concerned about his parents."
"Amo is the most obedient and filial child. As I expected, don't tease me."
Yang Jian smiled, put down his brush, and asked the eunuch to come in to the King of Jin. The latter left the study without stopping, returned to the gate of the hall, bowed down and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty will call you in."
When Yang Guang untied his sword and handed it to him, soldiers rushed over in the square under the stone steps behind him. Before the horse could stop, they turned over and jumped down neatly, stepped up the stone steps, raised their hands towards Yang Guang who was looking at him, and said, "Your Highness." Then they looked at the eunuch at the door.
"Go and report to Your Majesty, the National Master has returned to the city."
