The fifth chapter of the special story
"City God Zhou Yu, come and meet quickly!"
Lu Liangsheng's feet slowly rose, walked through the dense tree cage, standing on the tips of the leaves, the wind blew the robe and flew, and a few strands of black hair floated on the side of his face, echoing sounds, in the empty field, except for the construction figures gathered together and were still talking, leaving a person laughing and clamoring.
No sound was heard around.
"Did the City God Temple be destroyed and the soul dissipated?" Lu Liangsheng glanced over and down on the ground, and Lu Jun's clothes yesterday appeared in his mind. The moment he showed his figure, his robe turned into a short-sleeved shirt, and his lower body turned into jeans with legs. Lu Liangsheng looked down and felt awkward. Fortunately, it was just a concealment and he did not feel uncomfortable when he acted.
Under the machine with a huge iron arm raised in front of me, a man squatted on the track and dialed the phone. Hearing the footsteps, he raised his face, thinking that it was his companion who had just left, and grinned.
"So fast? I paid before I even arrived at the place..."
What I saw was a handsome young man wearing a short white shirt, smiling and walking towards this side. He put away his cell phone in his hand, squatted down and picked up his chin.
"Is there anything wrong? Brother."
"Hard, ask." Lu Liangsheng wanted to bow his hand, but remembered the people he had seen yesterday and now, and seemed to be quite casual about meeting. He was about to lift up and put them down. He asked with a smile: "...I remember there was a City God Temple here, which I hadn't passed here for many years. Today I want to come and worship the incense stick, but why didn't it go away? But I moved somewhere else?"
"There is weird talking to Guli."
The man frowned and muttered, but the young man liked him. The other party spoke gently and politely, which was much better than the children in the family. After thinking about it, he pointed to the back and the tall buildings behind the flat land.
"This land was sold last year. The original Chenghuang Temple has not been built yet. I heard that it was moved to the city center. It may be built next year or the year after. Let's come back then."
"So that's it, I'm upset."
Lu Liangsheng thanked him, looked at the machines in front of him with exquisite iron pipes on them. Even if he had read classics, he could not tell anything. Seeing that the man had no intention of speaking, he was concentrating on fiddling with something like a small board, and no longer stayed, and turned around and returned to the old donkey.
In the eyes, the sky suddenly became cloudy, and a forest nearby rustled and a little white mist appeared in the forest. A man's outline appeared, bowed to this side and bowed down: "Wuhu City God, Xu Sheng pays homage to the national master."
This place is strange to the world. When Lu Liangsheng heard the title of "national teacher", he suddenly felt like he was missing and found a "companion" on the way. This city god, who had heard Zhou Yu mention before, was one of the generals before his death and a "person" whom he could trust.
Withdrawing his illusion, revealing his blue shirt and white robe, Lu Liangsheng took several feet in one step, and returned to the shade of the old donkey in a few steps, and raised his sleeves to the ushered in the city god, "City God Xu, can the governor Zhou be here?"
The person with a square face and his eyes were majestic. He was obviously a little excited when he saw Lu Liangsheng. With the sound of his armor rubbing, a circle of thick and short beards between his lips were relaxed, and he said:
"Reported to the national master, the governor's temple was destroyed, his soul was unstable and he could not meet him, so he sent me to meet him first."
"Then...how long has my national teacher been away?"
When Lu Liangsheng asked this, he felt confused. After all, in a blink of an eye, the world around him was changing with each passing day and became completely unfamiliar. The only people around him were Master and Lao Du, and "The Endless Mountains and Seas" could not be opened. It was difficult for Hong Lian and the others to come out. This feeling of loneliness was quite uncomfortable.
On the opposite side, Xu Sheng, the city god who bowed, raised his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "It has been thousands of years since I returned to the national master..."
The scholar standing beside him was prepared. He couldn't help feeling a little sad when he heard this time. He turned his head and looked at the direction of Qixia Mountain, his parents, sisters, and Lao Sun... I'm afraid he couldn't even find the grave.
On this side, Xu Sheng saw the national master standing there motionlessly and did not dare to say anything else. After a while, Lu Liangsheng's lips moved and he asked softly:
"Is Qixia Mountain still there?"
"The mountain is still there, but now it has changed, and many villas have been built."
"Villa?" Lu Liangsheng frowned, "What is that?"
"It's actually the house."
Xu Sheng lived in the world for a long time. Although he was just a soul, he also knew the changes in the world and learned a lot of things. Some people even came to the City God Temple to burn incense and burned some mobile phones and computers, which made him laugh and cry, and these things were not needed at all.
"The mountain is still there."
Finally, there was good news that made Lu Liangsheng smile on his face. As for the so-called villas, he didn't take them seriously. He pulled Xu Sheng to continue asking about the world and the history after he left. He knew that after Yang Guang passed the throne to his son, the Sui Dynasty lasted for more than a hundred years, but later, because of his descendants' stupidity and incompetence, Li Shimin's son robbed the throne and changed the Sui Dynasty to Tang.
"These two families... When they arrived in the indifference, Yang Guang and Li Yuan were probably going to form a group."
Regarding the fall of Sui Dynasty, Lu Liangsheng now heard that it was just a story that happened in the long river of history. When he heard that the two dynasties alternated and there was no big war, he smiled again.
Afterwards, he also asked about the group of Yin Gods he had granted back then.
"After a thousand years, how are they now?"
"I returned to the national master and founded the country in my early years and pushed down temples everywhere. Most of the Yin Gods conferred by the national master are no longer here." Xu Sheng also sighed when talking about the past decades before. His temple had also suffered several times. Fortunately, they were all repaired later, and he was proud of his soul and dissipated.
As he said that, he suddenly remembered something, and Xu Sheng continued to speak:
"The National Master, I remembered something. Some of the Yin Gods are still there. After losing the temple, they returned to the indulgence, but soon returned to the world and had their bodies, as if they were...resurrected."
"There is still such a thing?"
"I feel that... it is the ability of the demon star..."
The words continued under the shade of the tree. At this time, the man squatting on the tracks was taking pictures with his cell phone, and he also showed a woman's face to the screen inside, saying something.
"Look, I'm really guarding the construction site. You don't know who your husband is?"
The woman's voice rang out in the turning phone, "Hmph, of course I know that you have the courage to go there for those few seconds, and you don't feel embarrassed!"
After saying a few words, he suddenly changed.
"Which people are wearing ancient costumes on your construction site? Are there crews shooting movies here?"
“Where is where?”
The man turned his head and there was no one around. On the phone, the woman was still saying, "Just under the tree you swept past just now, I saw both eyes. You can't see such two living people?"
The man looked at it a few times again, especially the big tree that his wife mentioned, there was a figure below. He thought the woman was joking about him and scaring people. He turned his face and enlarged the screen in the upper right corner. Then... his hands shook, and under the tree, one man was wearing a blue shirt and a white robe, and the other man stood together in a armor as if he was talking.
He took the phone away and confirmed his face changed wildly, "Ah!!" and shouted, "Ah!", got up and crawled into the mechanical cab, and bumped into the door, hunched his face and shivered all over his body.
A sharp shout came to the gentle tree in the distance. Lu Liangsheng glanced at the machine there and nodded to Xu Sheng, "I already know about the demon star. I will go and see it. I'm sorry to come and greet you today."
"No need to worry, I'm lucky to see the national teacher."
The two bowed each other, and Xu Sheng said goodbye and left. Lu Liangsheng took the reins and pulled the old donkey away in the direction of the coming. Regarding the demon star, when he ascended before, he had seen it in the void. However, after so many years, there were still demon stars on earth.
"It seems like I'll have to stay for a little longer."
