Chapter 230 Who takes the blame
Early on the next morning, Ulu layman did not go to Caoxin Hall to meet his apprentice as usual, but went directly to the west gate of Kyoto to wait.
He found a restaurant, drank morning tea first, drank the tea from colored to dull, and found a carriage parked at the west gate.
This carriage is different from the carriages of those transporters. The driver is wearing full armor and is obviously a figure in the palace. The top of the carriage is also covered with reinforced iron plates, like a heavy battle train. car.
Seeing this carriage, Ulu layman knew that the real owner was coming.
He just winked at the waiter in the hotel, and the latter immediately walked towards the carriage.
When they arrived at the carriage, they chatted for a while, and then their eyes fell on the Ulu layman in the hotel.
After confirming, the soldiers took off the reins and left directly with their horses, leaving only the iron box parked on the road.
The waiters, guests and shop owners in the original hotel all exchanged their clothes and dressed like the accompanying servants. They closed the hotel door and tied the reins directly to the iron carriage.
Another man dressed as a charlatan came, holding a large piece of cloth in his hand and covering the iron box.
When the iron carriage was covered with cloth, it immediately turned into an ordinary truck, making it invisible to others and invisible to others.
Ulu layman got into a carriage next to him.
Raise the whip and set sail.
The convoy moved forward, spent half a day, and finally arrived at a town near Kyoto before the sun set.
After arriving in this town, I saw many young scholars, all riding horses and holding books, bowing to each other, calling each other brother, and their eyes were filled with joy:
"Brother Chang! I didn't expect to see you here!"
"Brother Guo Xian! What a coincidence! You also listened to the call of the Lu family and gathered here to deal with the blind man in Xuzhou. Evil thief?”
“That’s natural”
The discussions in the town were all about this matter. It was obvious that these scholars were gathered by the Lu family and wanted to go to Qingzhou to support Shou. king.
The convoy of Ulu layman also attracted a lot of attention, but the convoy was so big and powerful that no one dared to get in the way and dispersed one after another.
In a short time, the motorcade arrived at the door of a large house. Ulu layman followed the car and arrived at the door of the house.
Immediately, several young men came forward and welcomed him into the mansion.
Take your seat, drink tea, and wait.
After half a stick of incense, I saw a handsome young man walking towards the backyard, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, wearing fine clothes. He was obviously from a wealthy family.
When he saw Ulu layman, he laughed loudly and stepped forward to shake hands:
"Yesterday, I heard that the layman planned to come. I was so happy! I didn't expect that the layman would look down upon those Xuzhou thieves!"
Ulu layman also showed a kind smile:
"Look at what you said, Master Lu. Those people in Xuzhou are evil thieves, and they are doing good to the world by helping King Shou in his crusade! This is a great thing!"
"You are right." Master Lu sighed. : "As the saying goes, if you don't die of hunger in peace, follow the example of the mantis. If the refugees in Xuzhou were to starve to death, the noble families would still pity them. Unexpectedly, they actually rose up in resistance and killed His Royal Highness King Kang! It was simply That’s disrespectful!”
“That’s right, we should have killed them”
The two of them exchanged some polite words, and Young Master Lu also sat down and asked with a smile:
"Bulk, what kind of name do you want to use when you come here this time?"
Sure enough, I asked this.
Ulu layman sneered in his heart.
A few days ago, there was a refugee commotion in Xuzhou, which was so loud that they killed King Kang directly! This incident aroused the anger of the nobles, and they criticized the thugs in Xuzhou with words and writings, but few people took action personally.
Later, King Shou of Qingzhou felt that he could swallow the land of Xuzhou and led a large group of troops to rush to Xuzhou Pass, but was stopped by a fierce general. They fought with each other for most of the day and failed to enter the pass.
The two sides just spent it.
Most of the nobles were watching and waiting for the incident to unfold. Today, the Fan Yanglu family finally couldn't bear it anymore and used his second son, his direct descendant, to come forward and summon all the scholars and scholars from all over the world. Go to Qingzhou to support King Shou.
But...
How can we support a group of people who play with pens?
These guys regard supporting Qingzhou as gold plating!
Now that Ulu layman is interfering, the second young master of the Lu family is naturally suspicious.
I thought I was here to get some fame.
I look down on the second young master of the Lu family in my heart, but on the surface he looks eager: "I am here this time solely to help you, the second young master."
"Oh?"< br>
"When you go to Qingzhou, you don't need to tell others that you have a layman with you. If you encounter any trouble, I will try my best to help you solve it."
Hearing what the layman from Ulu said, the second young master of the Lu family was also very surprised. Surprised:
"Is this? Is there something wrong?"
"What's wrong? Just ask me."
The second young master of the Lu family nodded clearly. nod.
I can probably guess in my heart that this layman was probably invited here by his family members through connections.
This is where I come to protect myself!
Good thing!
With a smile on his face:
"As you said, you are my senior, so you should naturally take the seat. If the kid really encounters something that cannot be handled, I will entrust you with it at that time. Take action.”
"That's fine." Ulu layman could also see that the second young master of the Lu family had fallen into the trap, and he laughed with satisfaction.
Now I have two layers of people taking the blame. Good thing!
……
Bai Tang was riding on the iron horse, looking at the soldiers in front of him.
This time he went out with a small number of troops, only a thousand elite soldiers accompanying him.
If you include logistics, there will probably be more than 5,000 people.
After all, the military strength of Yuzhou is far inferior to that of Youzhou. King Jing spent a lot of effort to protect his town from being disturbed by evil spirits, and he could not use the main army, so he could dispatch only so many troops.
But this is not a big problem. After all, the main purpose of this team is not to kill, but to use it as a cover to cover Zuo Chen's whereabouts.
It was almost time to order the troops and generals. Bai Tang nodded and looked at Zuo Chen and Caiyi who were sitting on the donkey cart next to him:
"Taoist Master, Fairy Girl, the Yuzhou White Robe Army is ready and can set off at any time."
"Let's go." Zuo Chen nodded, and the donkey cart moved along the road.
Bai Tang waved his riding whip high and shouted:
“My sons, follow me!”
He rode to the front of the team.
Someone in the army blew the horn, the carriage pulled the drum, and the dancing hammer struck hard, making a heavy thumping sound.
The elite soldiers gathered into a group and rode forward, while the logistics and ordinary soldiers protected the carriage and moved forward. The team was huge.
Seeing Yuzhou City getting further and further away, Zuo Chen couldn't help but lose focus.
Guan Jinping did not go with them. She stayed in Yuzhou City for the time being and planned to practice the Taoist scriptures that Zuo Chen left for her and scare the old man when she went to Kyoto.
Zhu Laoba has not come to the city after all. He is probably very busy helping the young couple appease the parents of the murdered apprentice. Zuo Chen told Li Yu about Zhu Laoba, and Li Yu would tell Zhu Laoba about Zuo Chen's whereabouts.
"Taoist priest, we haven't been back to Xuzhou for a while. I wonder what Xuzhou has become."
Caiyi was also quite emotional.
She still remembered that when she first followed Zuo Chen, it was just to learn more skills from Zuo Chen so that she could earn more food when she was working in the world.
Unexpectedly, by following Zuo Chen around, he would somehow become the peak innate person.
She also got the title of great aunt.
Not to mention anything else now, as long as she doesn't touch matters related to the sea of suffering and throws Caiyi into the world, she can be regarded as one of the top masters.
Just following Zuo Chen for so long, Cai Yi’s character also changed.
In these troubled times, if you can help others reunite, do good deeds, and become virtuous, isn't this a good thing?
Cai Yi estimated that if one day she left Zuo Chen and traveled alone in the world, she would probably do something similar to what Zuo Chen is doing now.
“I’ve been away for a while.”
Zuo Chen was also a little disappointed.
After careful calculation, he came down from the Gray Mountain in spring, and now it is already the beginning of spring in the second year.
It didn’t take long to walk, but there were a lot of things to see.
The world is bustling with people. There are disasters, sorrows, and bitterness, but there are also good people, good people, and people who protect lives.
After this experience, it can be regarded as a training in the world of mortals.
Now that I think about it again, I have more experience.
My mind felt much more relaxed, and even my inner breath became more harmonious.
Zuo Chen took an inner look at his Dantian.
The five qi in the chest are already there, and the three flowers on the top are complete.
The baby that was still dangling had become much more solid.
Two of the scrolls floating around it have been engraved on top, and the remaining scrolls are still floating slowly.
Zi Zuo Chen felt that it would take about three more "paintings" before his Nascent Soul could be officially formed.
Besides this Nascent Soul, there is still a ball of "liquid" floating, exuding a wonderful and wild aura.
Like the sun and the moon, lingering in Zuo Chen’s Dantian.
Zuo Chen felt that he might have practiced incorrectly.
But Taoism is indeed deeper.
No big deal!
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Bai Tang retreating to Zuo Chen and the others on horseback.
"Taoist Master, as we march with the army, can it be noisy?"
"It doesn't matter. The voice of the army is quite neat and sounds pleasant to the ears." Zuo Chen waved his hand and said, "But you are right. Does the Qingzhou Army know anything? ”
"It's quite a bit." Bai Tang said with a smile: "The strength of King Shou is relatively weak among several vassal kings, but he occupies a land of plenty, and he has a lot of gold and silver in his hands. He also imitated King Chang and accepted many followers. , but he is more willing to deal with those families than to recruit individual Jianghu people. Because of this, he has a good reputation among the gentry, and many literati are willing to speak for him.
" As for his army... I don’t know if you have heard of it. Recently, a general came out of his army, called Tian Dao. It is said that he is holding a sword, the second most powerful weapon in the magic weapon spectrum. He got it half a year ago. Come. Can destroy the world's magic weapons! It is truly an artifact. This person should be the most difficult to deal with. "
Zuo Chen: "? ? ”
This Heavenly Sword General’s Heavenly Sword...
Isn’t it the one I gave to Liu Lezi back then?
Not used yet?
