I'm just an ordinary Taoist priest

Chapter 263
Chang'an City is different from Luoyang. Although there are more cultivators, there is no Tongtian Pavilion to show their identities for them to live in. The only thing standing among the clouds is the Fuyue Xiaoxie where the chief is.

The Fuyue Xiaoxie is not an ordinary attic building. Instead, it looks like a six-story building suspended in the air and hidden in the clouds. Except for the chief, few people can enter it.

The chief himself once said frankly that this small pavilion that Fuyue the Moon is an extremely powerful magical device, and that he can see the whole world while sitting in Chang'an is also due to the power of this small pavilion.

At this time of night, Gu Yao and his party were sitting in the yard, using a flat bluestone slab as a grill, setting it on several stones, directly covering the stone surface with oil, and piled up firewood under the stone, neatly piece by piece. The meat was spread flat on the bluestone, and it sizzled when it was burned, and the fragrance was overflowing.

"This is called barbecue, but unfortunately there are no leeks, eggplants, bananas, etc., only meat and cabbage."

Holding the long bamboo chopsticks in one hand, Gu Yao turned over the sliced ​​meat, turning the side that had been roasted to a golden brown, while sprinkling the spices and seasoning sauce that were just ground in the afternoon, and the rich aroma slowly filled the entire yard. Then slowly climbed over the courtyard wall, got through the crack of the door, and slipped in and out.

Lu Baihou, Xiyan, and Qianniang squeezed across from Gu Yao, their eyes were straightened, and they shut their mouths tightly so as not to drool too much, causing him to dehydrate and die: "How long, how long?"

"Come on, come on."

Gu Yao unhurriedly turned over one by one, and then picked a piece of meat that was slightly tilted, and the meat oil seemed to have been completely roasted, and put it into his mouth: "Huh~huh~ It smells so good, but it's a pity that there is no pepper, otherwise it will It is lore."

Seeing that Lu Baihou's eyeballs were about to fall to the bluestone board, Gu Yao picked up three plates and put a little on each: "Stop your greed first, the guests haven't come yet."

The three little ones went to eat the meat happily, Gu Yao spread the meat again and waited for the guests to arrive.

Die'er and Jingyin naturally didn't eat these things, so they sat at a place far away, eating vegetarian dishes bought from a nearby restaurant, and sipping fruit wine facing each other.

Gu Yao's guests were Liu Xuanfeng, Zhang Qingchen, and Yan Yiyuan.

Liu Xuanfeng heard that Gu Yao took the initiative to come to the door when he arrived, and by the way told Zhang Qingchen that he was also in Chang'an, so Gu Yao went to the Chang'an office of Lielonghushan in person and invited him over.

There are no Taoist temples in Chang'an City, but regular Taoist schools can still have a branch here similar to an office. Before, Yu Qiuyi sent a letter to Chang'an to ask Chang'an to send someone to check Gu Yao's talent. place.

If the people in the city want to burn incense and pray for blessings, they must either stay in these "offices" or go out of the city. There are also many Taoist temples outside Chang'an City.

But Yan Yiyuan was an accident. Like Gu Yao, he only arrived today. As soon as he arrived, he went straight to the gambling house and bet heavily on himself to be in the top three. It can be said that he was very confident, and it caused a little commotion— Because he easily overwhelmed Gu Yao's top three, but when he was warned, he accidentally chopped down the tavern opposite the gambling house.

Before it even started, he had incurred a huge debt. When Jing Yesi sent someone to redeem him and came back to pay for him, he was bumped into by Gu Yao and pulled him along.

Not long after, when the agreed time arrived, the three of them came successively.

Liu Xuanfeng held six jars of wine in his hand, and walked in front with a smile.

Zhang Qingchen carried some fragrant flowers and fruits, which he said were special products of Longhu Mountain, and were sandwiched between them.

Yan Yiyuan followed at the back, holding a box in her hand, it was tightly fitted, and she didn't know what it was, it fell at the back.

"It smells so good, I never thought Gu Yao would have such a skill."

Liu Xuanfeng smiled and sat beside the bluestone, put down the wine: "Unfortunately, my granddaughter is in Luoyang now, so she is not so lucky."

He opened the wine and handed it directly to Gu Yao and the others.

"This is the old man's own beautiful wine, which is not very good, but the material is a water scorpion that made waves in the Bashu area back then. The water scorpion has been cultivated for 500 years. He did too much evil and failed, and he had to swallow people to heal his injuries, so he happened to be hit by this old man."

The 虺 is a legendary venomous snake, which turns into a jiao in 500 years, a dragon in a thousand years, a horned dragon in 500 years, and Yinglong in a thousand years.

Gu Yao has also seen records in old-fashioned classics, saying that this kind of snake is extremely poisonous, and new changes will occur every 500 years. The so-called jiao, dragon, horned dragon, and Yinglong are just that it has cultivated dragon scales and dragon claws. , dragon horns and wings, it should be a natural dragon species, but the natural poison will disappear with the appearance of scale claws and horn wings.

It can be regarded as a prehistoric alien species.

Gu Yao took the wine, the wine smelled clear, and the wine was slightly blue in color. After taking a sip, the mouth felt sore and numb, but after swallowing it, it directly turned into pure qi.

He was a little surprised: "This wine is very beneficial for cultivation."

Liu Xuanfeng laughed and said: "That's natural, the three of you have to participate in the selection, so this old man is willing to take out this treasure to make up for you."

"Thank you, Master Liu."

The three said in unison.

Liu Xuanfeng waved his hands again and again, and Zhang Qingchen also took out his exotic flowers and fruits, but there was nothing to say. The rare treasures of Longhushan blessed land are naturally wonderful. Zhang Qingchen said that these fruits are for people who have never practiced to build a foundation Yuan Suo, for them, can only relieve their desire for tongue.

Gu Yao threw one to Xiyan, and after Xiyan swallowed it, she was overjoyed. These fruits are a first-class supplement to her, and with just one, she can practice a lot faster.

Zhang Qingchen said so after watching Gu Yao inspect the fox, nodded and said: "This is also the second use of this fruit, cultivating monsters, as long as they have not been transformed, it will be very effective, but there are not many fruits, so very few people do this .”

"But since it's up to you, Junior Brother, after I go back, I'll send someone a few dozen catties."

Gu Yao was taken aback: "A few dozen catties is too much."

"Not much, not much. You are my junior brother. My master feels a little guilty towards you master and apprentice. It's just a little fruit, nothing serious."

Guilt?

Gu Yao recalled what the Celestial Master had asked him to do when he was distracted and left, and asked curiously, "How is Master?"

Zhang Qingchen shook his head: "It's not good, because the uncle's matter is not only your master, but also the third uncle who caused trouble in the Shangqing sect. The master and the elders have been arguing for a long time, and now there are some serious internal conflicts in Longhu Mountain."

"Third Martial Uncle. Did he escape that day? Or was he taken back to Longhu Mountain?" Gu Yao asked, thinking of Third Martial Uncle Shan Yi.

"Caught him, but Master originally wanted to escort him back to Longhu Mountain, but Jing Yesi wanted to go, and he escaped on the way to Chang'an."

The two talked about the Longhu Mountain, Liu Xuanfeng and Yan Yiyuan seized this opportunity, listened with pricked ears, and quickly swept the meat on the stone slab.

When Gu Yao looked at Yan Yiyuan, he realized that there was only polite meat left on the slate, so he smiled helplessly at Zhang Qingchen: "Fortunately, there is a lot of meat prepared, but we will have to wait."

Liu Xuanfeng snatched the meat plate: "I'll come, you young people continue to chat."

"Then please trouble Mrs. Liu."

Gu Yao thanked her and looked at Yan Yiyuan: "What's in the box you brought?"

Yan Yiyuan slightly raised his head: "Xi Rang."

"What?" Gu Yao couldn't believe his ears, even Liu Xuanfeng stopped, and looked at him with Zhang Qingchen.

Yan Yiyuan is very proud. If there is a tail, it should be up to the sky by now: "Yes, Xiyang, the legendary god Xiyang used for water control."

"However, it's not the original version. I asked the senior who discovered it together. This should be the soil contaminated with the divine power of the breath soil. It is far from being so magical, but it is also very powerful. At least for those who make magic machines In my eyes, it is a peerless treasure."

"I kept some, and I gave you some as a thank you."

He handed the black box to Gu Yao: "This black box was given by that senior, and there are restrictions on it to suppress its self-growth, but the growth power of these soil itself is not very strong, about the size of a fist. It can grow up to the size of a person."

Gu Yao took it, pulled off the lid, and took a look.

Inside is a pile of multicolored mud, which keeps rolling like a tide in the box.

If Yan Yiyuan's description is accurate, the colorful clay in this box can grow to the size of three people.

Gu Yao took a few glances and handed the box to Liu Xuanfeng and Zhang Qingchen, who were also amazed.

Let Jingyin appraise it again, and let Dier put it away for safekeeping.

Immediately, the four of them began to drink and eat meat to discuss the Tao.

It wasn't until the Fuyue Xiaoxie in the sky was as bright as the moon that the three got up to say goodbye.

Sending the three of them away, Gu Yao went back to the house: "I asked them about the Weaver Girl, the Lady of the Six Gods, and those faceless women, but Mr. Liu didn't know about it, so Jing Yesi probably didn't either, only Si The chief may know a little bit.”

Jing Yin nodded and said: "Then we can only wait until tomorrow to inquire about the news, but there is no rush. No matter what, let's focus on the Fuxi Tower competition first. Didn't you say that this matter is very important?"

Gu Yao nodded and said: "It is really important, I will grasp the scale, and it will not affect the competition."

After talking about the meeting, they went back to their houses to rest.

The next day in Qingcheng, Gu Yao had just woken up when he was awakened by the knock on the door of the disciples who came to deliver strange flowers and fruits under Zhang Qingchen's order.

"Senior brother, he's too polite. He just said it last night. It's only been three hours, and he sent so much."

After Gu Yao took about six boxes, he heard the disciple say: "Young Tianshi said that this is only one-third, and the remaining two-thirds will be sent in two times, about once a month. Come to ask for the address, and these melons and fruits need to be taken within one month, otherwise the effect will be much worse."

Gu Yao thanked him repeatedly.

As soon as the door was closed, Xiyan leaped excitedly and plunged into a box.

Gu Yao looked at Xiyan's happy face, and said to Jingyin: "Master, please take care of Xiyan, and I will share these fruits with you, and I will share some of them with my mother."

After Jing Yin agreed, Gu Yao didn't go back to the house for a rest, let Die'er hide in the robbery sword, carried the robbery sword on his back, carried a jar of deer antler wine and a jar of tiger whip wine, and went to find Jiuqian .

"Speaking of which, I don't know if Zuiyue told him my identity. The big commotion yesterday should have been revealed, alas."

"Hopefully there will be no need to convince others with virtue."

Gu Yao sighed, quickened his pace, and arrived at yesterday's mansion.

Standing in front of Jiuqian's mansion and looking at the Zuiyue Mansion opposite, Gu Yao had to sigh again, Chang'an people really know how to play and hand out hats face to face.

Gently knocked on the door, and in less than a moment, a servant opened the door cautiously: "Who is your lord?"

"Next Zhang San, I made an agreement with Master Jiuqian yesterday, and I am here to buy a magic machine, please inform me."

Give your pseudonym, and the boy closes the door.

After a while, Jiuqian, just like the boy, poked his head out cautiously to inquire, then grabbed Gu Yao and dragged him into the room: "Go, let's talk inside."

"Why is Master Jiuqian so nervous?"

My identity doesn't seem to be exposed, doesn't Zuiyue really want to kill him?There was such a big movement yesterday, but it was still hidden from the truth
Gu Yao followed behind, looking at Jiuqian's back, feeling that his body was covered with death words.

Entering the hall, the layout is the same as yesterday, and those women are also there, but today's Jiuqian obviously has no interest.

He stepped down from the formation to isolate the sound from leaking out, and put the women outside, then he breathed a sigh of relief and slumped on the chair: "Zhang San, you came just in time, there was a sudden explosion on the opposite side yesterday, and then there was a Do you know why the Yangshen old monster was kicked out of the city?"

Gu Yao shook his head: "I don't know either, I walked faster, and this happened only when I got home."

Jiuqian didn't doubt that he had sent someone to follow Gu Yao, although he lost it, but looking at the direction, Gu Yao's goal was to the south. ,
Of course, the most critical factor is that he thinks that Gu Yao has nothing to do with Yangshen
Jiuqian touched his forehead, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve: "That's all, let's get down to business, you drink?"

"It's all of this quality, I'll give you a taste first."

Gu Yao casually put the wine in front of him, pretending to be casual and said: "However, I inquired about what happened yesterday, and I also heard some news. It is said that it has something to do with your Taoist partner Zuiyue. She seems to be there too."

Jiuqian just pulled out the wine cork and dipped her hand into some wine, when she heard this, her body froze: "Well, I heard about it too, I guess she came to visit the real Yangshen, I know her contacts I can't figure it out either."

Gu Yao smiled and nodded, watched him lick it, and then his eyes lit up: "This wine is better than I imagined."

Seeing that he deliberately changed the topic and didn't want to talk about Zuiyue, Gu Yao nodded with a smile: "Of course it's top grade, otherwise how dare I come to discuss cooperation with you."

Jiuqian's eyes became very satisfied, and he put the wine cork back on the jar: "Okay, since that's the case, then we can formally discuss the matter of cooperation."

bang bang bang —

Before he could finish speaking, the door was knocked again.

This time the boy opened the door and was kicked in.

"Jiuqian, where are you, get out!"

Zui Yue's angry voice came from outside the door.

Gu Yao and Jiuqian shouted in their hearts that it was not good at the same time.

This woman is here to destroy my cliché Jiuqian! ——She didn't want to have a bad relationship with herself, so she deliberately chose this time to come, pretending not to know that she was there, and directly muddied the water, dragging Jiuqian home.

Jiuqian's face was ashen-colored, shaking like a sieve: "It's broken, I... my Taoist companion is here to catch the adulterer."

He frantically scanned the house, looking for a place to hide, and finally grabbed Gu Yao's hand: "Brother Zhang Sanhao, tell my Taoist companion later that the women here are all yours!"

Gu Yao: "."

"Sister-in-law, don't get me wrong, it's all mine!"

When Zuiyue rushed into the hall, Gu Yao's face was numb.

Drunk Moon: "."
