The fire drove away the darkness.
"Thank you."
Ouyang Rong reached out and waved the mosquitoes around him, and reached out to take the wine gourd handed over by Lu Ya.
Lu Ya and Zhang Shixiu walked to the fire opposite Ouyang Rong and sat down.
It's late at night.
"No, Junior Brother Lu, please drink it."
Zhang Shixiu waved his hand and politely declined the wine handed over by Lu Ya. He took out a compass from his sleeve and lowered his head to fiddle with it.
Lu Ya had no expression on his face, his eyes were fixed on the fire, he raised his head from time to time to drink, and drank most of the wine gourd in his hand.
Ouyang Rong looked at two Taoist priests with different styles.
Zhang Shixiu is a very standard Taoist priest. As a Taoist priest from the direct line of the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain, he has many rules and regulations. He looks like he is abstinent of asceticism and alcohol, and is upright and dressed cleanly.
Just like a young heroic disciple who can be seen as a card in a famous sect.
Lu Ya looks much sloppy and casual, his Taoist robe is dirty, and he drinks wine in big mouthfuls. I don’t know if it’s lustful for the time being, but looking at Lu Ya’s straight man with low EQ in the past, he is probably a little virgin.
Ouyang Rong laughed silently, but he felt that compared to the regular Taoist priests of Taiqing, the Taoist priests of Shangqing of Maoshan, the Taoist priests of Shangqing of Maoshan were more interesting.
No wonder the younger sister said that the former is face and the latter is inner world. In essence, the Three Qing Dao Schools are one and are both of the Three Mountains and the Blood-Second Generation.
Lu Ya suddenly spoke:
"Senior Brother Zhang, don't practice it. I will take it to Gezao Mountain in the future and ask Master Wan to practice it."
Zhang Shixiu shook his head and still lowered his head to make a compass:
"I got rid of this from my senior brother. I was ruined by Li Congshan. I will help you repair it." After a pause, he whispered: "This is what your master left to you. I'm sorry to use one less item."
Ouyang Rong lowered his eyes and then noticed the compass.
It was retrieved from Li Congshan's body. I remember that after Li Congshan used it to track it down not long ago, a piece of the compass was pinched by the warrior and exposed broken patterns...
Lu Ya did not go to see Zhang Shixiu, as if he was accused. He crossed the elf-jumping flames, looked at the paper and pen and a scroll at Ouyang Rong's hand, and asked softly:
"What was Mr. Ouyang just writing?"
In the afternoon, Ouyang Rong took Shisanniang and Wang Caozhi to purchase northbound supplies. The county town was far away and it was already late at night when he returned to the camp at night.
He ordered Thirteen Niang to go and rest after Wang Caozhi went to watch, Ouyang Rong came alone to watch, and took out the talisman paper and spiritual ink, and prepared some.
Although Ouyang Rong had agreed to watch the night, Lu Ya and Zhang Shixiu seemed to be worried and came over to sit together.
Ouyang Rong also put the scroll of the Peach Blossom Land in his arms and silently folded up several talisman papers with the Kuixing Cluster and the Sacred Runes.
He waved his hand:
"It's okay, I have some inspiration at night, write and draw."
Lu Ya didn't care too much and said "yes".
Ouyang Rong stopped drawing the Kuixing Talisman and the red and black Talisman, stuffed it into his sleeve, was disturbed and could not do anything, so he simply drank and rested.
Zhang Shixiu asked: "Young Master Ouyang really won't follow the prince back to Beijing?"
Ouyang Rong smiled and said nothing.
Zhang Shixiu nodded slowly:
"This time, the prince's family depends on you to escape from the trap and go north. Everyone else is ready to go back to Beijing to enjoy the glory and wealth together. Look at Yanhua in Luoyang. It would be better for Mr. Ouyang to continue in this corner of the south of the Yangtze River."
Lu Ya signaled to Ouyang Rong to the wine pot and toast a glass.
The two clinked their glasses and drank together.
Lu Ya reveals:
"Mr. Ouyang, besides Master, I will also obey you. Last time the palace was in a fire, I didn't listen to you and dragged you down. It won't happen next time. I will definitely listen to your instructions."
"Master Lu, you are polite. I heard from the junior sister about you, and it is understandable that my junior sister is also pleading for you."
Lu Ya still shook his head ashamed.
Ouyang Rong turned around and asked, "Dao Master Zhang also went north?"
Zhang Shixiu shook his head: "Send a distance and arrive at the boundary of Longhu Mountain. I will leave and ask Junior Brother Lu to send the prince back to Beijing. I will go back to Tianshi Mansion to report my life."
Ouyang Rong suddenly asked: "Is there a lotus pond in the yard of your Tianshi Mansion?"
"That's right. Where did Mr. Ouyang hear about it?"
Ouyang Rong narrowed his eyes:
"I heard from the junior sister that this Lotus Pond is not allowed to be seen by outsiders?"
Zhang Shixiu thought about it, nodded and shook his head:
"If it's someone else, of course it won't work. The lotus pond has a great relationship and involves my Zhang Feng Shui. However, if it's Mr. Ouyang, I can make an exception to take you in and visit."
"It has a great relationship, but I am so relieved to be an outsider?"
"Young Master Ouyang is not an outsider..."
After a pause, Zhang Shixiu whispered:
"But Mr. Ouyang looks at it, the lotus should not be picked, otherwise I will be punished. However, although the lotus seeds do not have the effect of spreading randomly outside, they will also prolong life. I can apply for one from the ancestor's hall at the end of the year and send it to Mr. Ouyang's mansion, which can be taken to your aunt or other elders."
Ouyang Rong pursed his lips.
Zhang Shixiu asked curiously: "Does Mr. Ouyang go? You can go with him."
Ouyang Rong suddenly laughed, shook his head, raised his head to drink, muttering:
"I'm grateful for my kindness. I'll go back to Xunyang City first and visit Master Zhang if I have time another day."
"good."
Zhang Shixiu didn't talk much and said softly:
"But I will see you soon. I will go back to Longhu Mountain and go down the mountain to find you. I will also inquire about the location of Yunmeng Jianze. However, I cannot guarantee that I will find it.
"Yunmeng Jianze is a hidden sect. Yunmeng Ze is a vast area of ​​thousands of miles. Few people know where Jianze is. In the past, the women of Yue also saw the dragon and didn't see the tail."
Ouyang Rong nodded: "Okay, thank you, I'm waiting for news from the Taoist priest in Xunyang City."
"OK."
At this time, Zhang Shixiu suddenly laughed and said, "It's repaired."
He happily signaled to Lu Ya to show his compass.
Lu Ya suddenly took out another compass from his arms and handed it to Ouyang Rong:
"You each one, take it for easy contact."
Ouyang Rong subconsciously said, "But this is your master..."
The Taoist priest with a face-paraly face waved his hand and interrupted: "It's okay, you go back to Luoyang to return me."
Ouyang Rong nodded.
"I will teach you how to use it."
Lu Ya started to teach in detail.
Ouyang Rong listened carefully.
A moment later, Caishou arrived and signaled Lu Ya and Zhang Shixiu:
"Miss is looking for you."
"yes."
The two Taoist priests left.
Ouyang Rong glanced at the tents not far away.
There are several tents with lights that are not out.
For example, Li Guer and Rong Zhen’s tent.
However, the junior sister's tent had already been turned off early, so she should have gone to bed.
After Ouyang Rong left the dinner in the afternoon, he didn't see them anymore.
Farewell is always sad. Ouyang Rong was originally planning to talk about this before leaving tomorrow morning, but at the afternoon banquet, he saw everyone enjoying his situation. Ouyang Rong felt that it was better to have short pain than long pain, so he said bluntly in advance.
Now, it really affected the atmosphere.
Ouyang Rong sat alone beside the fire, silent and calmed down, and prepared to study the compass.
At this moment, a figure appeared.
It's Ye Weilai.
The white-haired girl walked to him and sat down in a thin nightgown.
Ouyang Rong asked strangely:
"Why don't you sleep? There are many mosquitoes outside, and you wear so few."
Ye Weilai didn't answer, sat next to him, hugged her knees, and buried her little head deep.
Quietly.
Ouyang Rong thought about it and asked gently:
"What's wrong?"
Ye Weili refused to answer.
Ouyang Rong thought about it:
"Auntie has gone to bed?"
"Just just slept."
The white-haired girl finally answered.
"Have you packed your luggage? Your luggage and aunt's luggage, you have to leave separately."
"Um."
Ouyang Rong thought about it and began to give me some advice:
"Although the junior sister and Rong Zhennu Shi quarreled, they are both good to you. When you arrive in Luoyang, you can ask them if you have anything to do. No matter whether you have become the new sword master on the way, you live in the royal palace. If you encounter something very difficult and it is not convenient to discuss it with them, you can go to the little princess and say I asked you to find it.
"You can tell her the big thing that her idea may not be the best solution, but it will not be wrong."
In the last sentence, Ouyang Rong is quite pronounced.
Ye Weilai had already raised his head and stared at him in a daze.
Ouyang Rong looked at the sky and nodded: "You go back and have a rest early..."
Ye Weilai suddenly said:
"Nu'er doesn't want to be that sword master."
Ouyang Rong frowned immediately, and then let out his eyebrows again:
"Okay, then I won't act like this. If you don't like it, don't go. Go and talk to your aunt and go back to Nanlong together..."
Ye Weilai reached out and touched his thick Confucian shirt, as if he was worried about whether it would be cold.
She whispered:
"I've already told the eldest lady."
"What do you say about aunt?"
"The eldest lady agreed."
Ouyang Rong was stunned for a moment and was about to speak, Ye Weilai said slowly:
"But what the eldest lady agreed was that Nuer would not go back to Nanlong, and would go back to Xunyang with you. Nuer would go to Xunyang."
Ouyang Rong frowned and looked straight at Ye Weilai.
Seeing this, Ye Weilai felt a little distressed, and reached out to touch his frown brow, his fingers were swaying, as if he wanted to smooth it out.
Ouyang Rong brushed away her wrist and said seriously:
"No, go to Luoyang and try to become the master of the sword. Listen to me, don't be willful..."
She shook her head hard and said with tears:
"If Nuer doesn't go, then what sword master? If Nuer doesn't do it, Nuer just wants to accompany you. You used to say that danger is dangerous, okay, there is danger. Nuer follows everyone, don't leave it as a scoop, which will make you distract...
"But there is no danger now, why do you still have to leave? The sword master, and there is no shortage of Nuer, Sister Caishou, so do it, let her go. Even if Sister Caishou is not, the prince and the princess are not short of suitable loyal maids, you can try it, and you don't have one.
"Nu'er just wants to stay and stay with you."
Ouyang Rong pursed his lips and refused to speak for a long time.
Ye Weilai opened her eyes and whispered:
"Unless Tan Lang wants to... want a family like Nuer to be the sword master, even if Sister Cai Shou is suitable, it is not Tan Lang's family, so Nuer is willing to stay."
Ouyang Rong immediately shook his head: "What are you saying? Ye Mingzhu was given to the prince by me and my junior sister. It is related to the overall situation and is not so petty."
Ye Weilai breathed a sigh of relief:
"Nu'er knew Tan Lang's mind, that's right. Let them do it. Your Highness, Sister Xie, and Sister Rong checked the final candidate."
After a pause, she said seriously: "Sister Xie, Sister Rong cares more about Tanlang's interests than Tanlang, and more about the belonging of this tripod sword."
Ouyang Rong was also speechless.
Ye Weilai lowered his head and sat next to him, holding his arm tightly and not letting go.
The meaning is self-evident.
After a moment, Ouyang Rong sighed.
He patted Ye Weilai on the shoulder:
"It's not appropriate for you to go back with me..."
"What's wrong with Tanlang going back? Isn't it just two things? Nuer heard it. One thing is to stabilize Xunyang City, and the other thing is to find the embroidery lady. These two things are not delayed. Nuer and the eldest lady both accept the embroidery lady. If you go find it, we welcome it, not to stop it."
"But you have a better place to go."
Ye Weili said in a gentle tone: "Tanlang, that's not a better place, at least not for Nuer."
Ouyang Rong said solemnly:
"This opportunity is very important to you."
Ye Weilai shook her head, her tone firm:
"You are more important to Nuer."
Ouyang Rong was helpless:
"Don't coax me, be serious, I'm serious, listen well, do you know why I asked you to study hard these days in Xunyang City? Because these are the keys to your broader world.
"Now a new key is placed in front of you, you must grasp it well. Weilai, you are no longer young, and you are slower and slower with other peers."
Ye Weilai tilted his head slightly and smiled quietly.
Ouyang Rong frowned.
Seeing this, she immediately replied:
"Tanlang, why do Nuer think that being by your side is the fastest way? Well, this is the end point that Nuer has always wanted.
"As for other girls, they should go quickly. Nuer reads and writes to keep up with you, and just want to stay by your side. This is Nuer's goal. Now that he can stay by your side, why should he go to the capital? This is one step ahead, how great."
Ouyang Rong:...
He was completely speechless.
At this moment, a fish swam out of the forest.
It was Ouyang Rong who sent the white sturgeon to the woods.
I used to dislike it for being dazzling in circles, Ouyang Rong drove it into the woods.
He recently discovered that its bronze body seemed invulnerable to swords and guns.
The white sturgeon swam out and walked out with it, there was a light pink figure.
It's Li Guer.
"It's okay to spend the night in the wild?"
Li Guer looked at the white sturgeon curiously and pointed at it and asked.
Ouyang Rong shook his head and looked at her with inquisitive eyes.
The little beauty with plum blossom makeup raised her index finger and turned a bag.
Her tone seemed casual:
"You keep talking, I'll send you a mosquito-proof sachet. I just heard Lu Ya say that you were bitten by mosquitoes here."
Ye Weilai shook his head, stepped aside, and gave up his position to Li Guer.
Ouyang Rong stood up and took the sachet:
"Thank you."
Li Guer did not leave, sat down on his own and asked:
"I didn't disturb you."
Ouyang Rong looked at her sitting posture while still, and pulled the corners of her mouth.
"No, just don't delay your rest."
Ouyang Rong simply sat down.
Ye Weilai walked over and looked at the white sturgeon curiously.
A woman and a fish are having fun.
Ouyang Rong and Li Guer sat on both sides of the fire and looked at each other quietly for a while.
Li Guer took the lead in reaching out:
"Is there any wine?"
"without."
He hid the wine behind his back.
Li Guer suddenly threw something out.
"I've given it to you."
Ouyang Rong caught it in the air and asked strangely:
"What?"
After a closer look, it was a small dan box with Taiqing Longhu Mountain Mansion Seal on the body.
He wiped the ashes from his hands and opened the box, and saw two small balls lying quietly inside.
A piece of emerald green is beautiful and has a scent of fragrance.
One piece is black and brown, with gold patterns faintly appearing, but it smells extremely smelly.
The former looks very familiar, and as for the latter... Ouyang Rong is vaguely familiar with it.
"This is……"
Halfway through his speech, he suddenly held the golden-patterned pill tightly.
The Adam's apple squirmed unconsciously.
The strange smell of this elixir attracted his dantian and his meridians to move.
It is not the spiritual energy of the Dantian field that is ready to move, but the eight extraordinary meridians of the Dantian field.
Ouyang Rong had seen Mo Jiao, one of the top qi-enhancing pills, and had used two, but even the Mo Jiao could not achieve the effect of hooking the dantian with the fragrance of medicine alone. This is a desire to eat from the deepest part of the bone marrow...
It is not a simple qi-enhancing pill!
