People are among the Eight Immortals, starting from Painted Skin Ghost

Chapter 151 It is difficult for Yuan Shoucheng to account for the origin of Xiangzi; seeing senior brother Lu Zu, Peony's love is robbed [[-] in [-]]

That night.

Chang'an, Qin Tianjian.

Green tiles and flying eaves, Changlang Youyuan.

A quiet room.

A man with a strange appearance and a beautiful appearance, wearing a purple and white robe, sat on a chair and asked:
"Who is this Taoist priest who obtained rain and snow from the Southern Altar today, Master Chunyang?"

The person sitting across from him has knife-cut temples, vermilion lips, a tiger body and dragon cheeks, a nine-yang scarf on his head, and a yellow cloak robe.

It was none other than Lu Dongbin, the real person of Chunyang.

Hearing this, Lu Dongbin didn't answer, but instead asked with a smile:
"Mr. Shen Ke knows that bad luck will be good, he can tell death and life, and the technique crowns Chang'an. Why can't he pass it on in one sleeve, and find out the details of that Taoist?"

Mr. Shen Ke, named Yuan Shoucheng.

Today, the Qintian Supervisor of the Tang Dynasty is the uncle of Yuan Tiangang.

As for the Qin Tianjian, since ancient times, it has been in charge of observing the sky, calculating the solar terms, and formulating the calendar for the imperial court.

Among them, there are many strange people and strangers, and those who possess magic skills hide among them.

"Then follow the words of the real person."

Yuan Shoucheng smiled slightly.

After finishing speaking, a mysterious light suddenly appeared in the sleeve robe, as if there was the sound of a tortoise shell crashing.

After a while, Yuan Shoucheng raised his palm, and immediately a few copper coins fell on the case, and then he used the technique of six lines and eight trigrams to predict that Han Xiangzi would come.

But after a short while, Yuan Shoucheng's face changed slightly.

Another lesson was passed on, cupping tea, I suddenly slumped against the chair, my body was sweating profusely.

At this moment, his expression changed drastically, with a look of surprise, he said:
"It's strange, I can't figure out the origin of that Taoist!"

"This... How can this secret technique not work today?"

It's not that Yuan Shoucheng is so surprised, it's because he used to pass on the skills of divination to no avail.

Daoist Naluofu and Patriarch Xiangshan are willing to bow down for this.

His technique was bestowed by a god.

Yuan Shoucheng is confident that even if he meets the Zhenxian family, he will open up and divination about its origin.

just now...

Such a result, but he did not expect it.

What's more, tonight there is the real Chunyang as a guest in Qintianjian.

How embarrassing is this?
"Perhaps the person who prays for rain has broad heels."

Lu Dongbin saw the embarrassment on Yuan Shoucheng's face, and couldn't help smiling.

Others don't know who is the one who prayed for rain?
Lu Dongbin naturally knew.

In the past, in Heling, Zhongnan Mountain, although Lu Dongbin had never met Han Xiangzi, he heard from his master Han Zhongli that he was a disciple of Changli.

Great-nephew of Confucian Han Yu!
Today, the Holy Majesty made an attack and wanted to punish Han Yu, so he asked him to go to the South Altar to pray for rain.

Unexpectedly, his junior brother Han Xiangzi is here!

At this moment, Lu Dongbin also saw Han Xiangzi in the sky above the South Altar in the Qin Tianjian. Although the latter concealed his appearance with magic techniques, with Lu Dongbin's heavenly eyes, how could he not be able to see his beautiful and beautiful appearance, his golden appearance and jade quality? .

However, what surprised Lu Dongbin was that his junior brother had only practiced Taoism for so long, and his cultivation base was almost condensed into three flowers, and he became a real person!
In such a situation, in Lu Dongbin's view, there are signs of coming from behind!
"Does Master Chunyang know who he is?"

Yuan Shoucheng asked doubtfully after hearing the words.

"To tell you the truth, Mr. Shenke, he is a poor brother named Han Xiangzi."

Lu Dongbin knew that this Yuan Shoucheng was no small feat, he really possessed magical skills, and his cultivation had already reached the level of a real person.

If it wasn't for his junior brother coming from the Taishang lineage, I'm afraid it would be hard to guarantee that there would be some clues.

Therefore, in front of him, Lu Dongbin did not need to hide anything.

"what!?"

"He is the apprentice of Immortal Chunyang, from this point of view, he is the apprentice of Immortal Zhengyang..."

Hearing this, Yuan Shoucheng became a little uneasy.

This Zhengyangzi was a general of the Han Dynasty. After being plotted by traitors, he fled to a valley to practice Taoism after his defeat.

After becoming a fairy, he often travels in the world of mortals to rescue the suffering.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, two disciples were taken in at once.

"As a junior, I have only practiced Taoism for less than ten years. I thought I was still learning Taoism in Zhongnan Mountain, but I did not expect to have such a climate."

"Mr. Shenke probably doesn't know that Junior Brother Xiangzi comes from the Changli clan, and his uncle is Han Yu, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials."

Seeing this, Lu Dongbin explained, and by the way, also stated Han Xiangzi's identity.

After the words fell, Mr. Shenke was stunned:
"This……"

"If Master Chunyang hadn't told him, the old Taoist wouldn't have known that Taoist Practitioner Qiuyu had such a history."

After reacting, he praised:

"Speaking of which, Zhengyang's lineage is really able to produce a lot of people."

"Han Xiangzi in the old Taoist temple is only a few years older than a weak crown, and he has that kind of cultivation. In a few years, he will become a real person!"

"Han Yu is in trouble now, and his nephew and grandson have come to Chang'an to rescue him. It can be seen that Han Xiangzi is also a person who values ​​love and righteousness."

After finishing speaking, Mr. God Class frowned and asked:
"It's just that the old man doesn't understand. Since Han Xiangzi is Han Yu's grandnephew, why doesn't he directly reveal his identity and ask for rain for him?"

"Perhaps this is Master's will."

Lu Dongbin couldn't figure it out either, so he could only figure it out.

In his opinion.

Today's rain and snow in Gyeonggi must have been borrowed from other places by his junior brother Han Xiangzi.

You know, this severe drought is unusual.

There have long been high-ranking people begging for rain, but it's a pity that Lei Bu was dumb and Gongcao ignored it.

Obviously, it was God's intention to punish Emperor Tang.

But the current rain and snow have relieved the drought. It wasn't Han Xiangzi's magic power alone. There must be a dragon god or Lei Gong who is in charge of this job.

In this regard, Mr. Shenke lowered his eyes and pondered, and did not mention it again.

But when he thought about Han Yu, he looked a little more solemn, as if warning:

"Although Han Yu is a generation of Wenzong, he is still a bit pedantic. Loyalty to the emperor and the country are certainly an example for ministers, but they are too rigid, and there is no guarantee that they will not cause trouble to the upper body."

"If you don't change it, there will be catastrophe in the future."

Regarding this, Lu Dongbin was silent for a while, and could only sigh helplessly:

"Then it depends on how the younger brother will save him..."

This Han Yu is Han Xiangzi's uncle.

Although he is Han Xiangzi's senior brother, it is inconvenient to intervene.

If it weren't for this, he would have been able to rain and snow this time.

The two talked at night by candlelight. After talking about this matter, Mr. Shenke paused, hesitated again and again, and said:

"Reverend Chunyang, the old Taoist heard from Master Luofu that you have been to the Zuichun Tower many times in the past few days, and you are deeply obsessed with a peony oiran."

"As a person who cultivates the Tao, although I don't pay attention to clear rules and precepts like Buddhism, I still have to stick to the altar and not be confused by the six desires. If I sink into it, there is no guarantee that my virtue will not be damaged."

"Old Taoists shouldn't be talkative, but you and I are Taoists after all, so I've said so much, I hope the real person will not be angry."

Between the words, there is a lot of exhortation.

With such heartfelt words, Lu Dongbin knew his good intentions, so he nodded his head and said:

"Mr. God's class is right, please remember it poorly."

This Mr. Shen Ke is highly respected among the Taoists in the human world, even Master Luo Fu would not dare to neglect him when he saw it.

Lu Dongbin is a new real person not long ago. Although he is the most powerful, he can't make mistakes.

only.

At this moment, Lu Dongbin was smiling wryly in his heart.

For some reason, the first time he saw Bai Mudan in Zuichun Tower, he always felt that he knew her before.

There are also more inexplicable feelings in my heart.

That kind of feeling is inexplicable and unclear, and it is still chaotic.

He was sad about this test, so whenever he was free, he went to Zuichunlou to buy drunk, hoping to see Bai Mudan.

Mr. Shenke asked him to stop here, and Lu Dongbin thought he would not let her go for a while.

After talking about this matter with Lu Dongbin, Mr. Shenke stopped there and changed to other gossip.

They didn't talk until late at night.

Then Yuan Shoucheng ordered the Taoist attendant to lead Lu Dongbin down to rest.

Before leaving, Yuan Shoucheng also asked Lu Dongbin to find his junior brother Han Xiangzi, so that he could come to Qin Tianjian to sit down when he had time.

……

The next day, dawn.

The rain and snow in Chang'an haven't melted yet.

From time to time, the new wind blows, slightly chilly.

Some people had to put on thicker clothes to keep out the cold.

However, judging from this posture, the sky will clear up in a few days.

Han Xiangzi woke up from his trance, talked to the temple master who was staying overnight, and walked into the city.

When I came to the street, there were many noisy people and the smell of fireworks.

From time to time, people can still hear people discussing how to obtain the immortal in the rain and snow for Chang'an yesterday.

This morning, many teahouses and taverns are crowded.

The storyteller with good deeds is already speaking eloquently, sitting on the stage, talking loudly about praying for rain yesterday.

Han Xiangzi passed by one by one, and found that everyone's faces were filled with smiles, and the haze of the past had long been swept away.

Seeing this situation, Han Xiangzi smiled from the bottom of his heart.

After wandering around for a while, Han Xiangzi was bored, so he inquired about Lu Dongbin's whereabouts.

This Lu Dongbin came to Chang'an much earlier than him.

With his willfulness, he will definitely play games in the world, and it's hard to guarantee that he won't get some fame right now.

In fact, it was just as Han Xiangzi expected.

He was on the street and asked around, and sure enough, he had news.

Many people said that a group of people came to the Drunken Spring Building recently, which was very strange.

Every time he drinks, he will spend a lot of money to ask the peony oiran to accompany him.

In addition, some people also said that the Taoist had a celestial appearance, and many women in Zuichun Tower secretly fell in love with him.

Knowing this, Han Xiangzi couldn't help shaking his head and smiling.

If his prediction was correct, then the Taoist priest who often went to Zuichunlou to find Peony Oiran was his senior brother Lu Dongbin.

You know, in the previous life, there are quite a few scripts of Lu Dongbin's three plays Peony Fairy.

Dare to love, now his senior brother wants to cross the catastrophe of love.

While thinking about it, Han Xiangzi walked towards the drunk spring building.

He went to Zuichun Tower, naturally not for the peony oiran, but to meet Lu Dongbin.

……

Drunken Spring Building, in the west square of Chang'an City.

Because most of the women in it are beautiful and charming, they can know six arts and many skills.

Therefore, within a few years of its opening, it has become the most prestigious place in Chang'an.

Many dignitaries, especially dudes, love to come here.

There were even rumors that some ministers stayed here behind the scenes.

Whether it is true or not, of course, is unknown.

But in short, almost everyone in Chang'an knows the name of Zuichunlou.

And that peony oiran is the number one card in Zuichunlou. It is rumored that she has the appearance of a closed moon and shameful flowers, the beauty of a country and a city, and a beautiful country.

When Han Xiangzi found this place, he really saw that Zuichunlou was a place for ecstasy.

Occupying a garden, the decoration is magnificent, and the fragrant orchids are exhausted.

The red sleeves in front of the door are full of make-up, leaning on the fence and watching, the autumn water is full of waves, which is the most disturbing.

Before arriving at Zuichun Tower, there is already a smell of rouge permeating the alleys.

The people who come and go to this building are all gorgeously dressed, and they look either rich or noble.

Han Xiangzi came here in a Taoist robe, but it was very abrupt.

Some of the guests who were shoulder to shoulder with the beauty all cast surprised expressions when they saw him.

But soon, he just laughed and ignored it.

"This Taoist priest also came to Zuichun Tower?"

"Is there a girl you like?"

Not long after, an old bustard saw Han Xiangzi's well-dressed clothes, and the Taoist robes on his body were beautifully embroidered with flowers, so he greeted him enthusiastically and asked.

at the same time.

Some Zhangtaijiao prostitutes, Yingying and Yanyan, also came forward and boldly looked at Han Xiangzi.

Seeing his slender figure and clear appearance, he couldn't help staring at him with beautiful eyes.

"There is indeed a girl I like."

Han Xiangzi remained calm and smiled slightly.

"She is?"

The old bustard asked with a smile.

"It is the peony oiran who is the most beautiful crown in Chang'an."

Han Xiangzi said.

"Why is there another leader looking for Miss Peony?"

Hearing that Han Xiangzi wanted to see Bai Mudan, the old bustard groaned inwardly.

But since a distinguished guest came, she couldn't refuse, so she could only say:
"Does the priest want to listen to her singing, or does he want her to drink with you?"

"Before the ugly words, it's not cheap to invite Miss Peony to accompany you."

"Listen to her singing."

Han Xiangzi thought about it and said.

"That's 500 taels of silver for an hour."

When the words fell, the old bustard blurted out.

At the same time, she looked at Han Xiangzi with doubts on her face.

It is said that those who practice Taoism have always been poor.

The old bustard had to wonder if the Taoist in front of him could come up with 300 taels of silver.

If not, then it's purely for fun.

Hearing this, Han Xiangzi smiled and said nothing, he had already seen the old bustard's thoughts.

I have to say, 500 taels is really expensive for only listening to the music for an hour.

For ordinary people, it is not bad to earn three or five taels of silver throughout the year.

But in order to see Lu Dongbin, Han Xiangzi did not hesitate, and took out three ingots of gold from his bosom.

"The rest of the silver will be paid after the poor Taoist listens to the music."

As soon as he saw the three ingots of gold, the old bustard's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took them over, happily saying:
"According to the Taoist priest's words."

After saying that, the old bustard turned to a flirtatious woman who was joining in the fun, and ordered:
"Wen Ping, hurry up and lead this priest to the private room on the third floor."

"Daoist, please come with my concubine."

Not far away, the graceful Wen Ping heard this, and immediately walked towards Han Xiangzi twisting his waist.

Following her, Han Xiangzi entered the Zuichun building and walked all the way to the third floor.

……

the other side.

The old bustard accepted Han Xiangzi's gold and hurriedly went to invite Peony Huakui himself.

It is said that Zuichun Tower is in Yixiu Pavilion.

There is a young Taofang, a woman with a bright red face, sitting demurely in front of the window.

There is a dowry under the window with a bronze mirror on it.

Next to the woman was a young girl who seemed to be just over the age of Ji, and at the moment she was carefully pasting flowers, looking at the bronze mirror from time to time, her graceful and beautiful face lost her mind.

"Sister Peony, you are so beautiful, no wonder those people outside are obsessed with you. If I were a man, I would fall in love with you too."

The maid couldn't help but praise.

Hearing this, the woman with cloud piled green temples and pear cheeks deceiving the snow chuckled lightly:

"Bi'er, don't be so talkative."

After the words fell, Bai Mudan seemed to think of something, and asked:

"By the way, is that Taoist coming today?"

"I haven't heard Mammy say it before, so it's probably because she didn't come." Bi'er said.

Bi'er has served Bai Mudan for a long time, and it is rare to hear that she would take the initiative to inquire about others.

Therefore, after she finished speaking, Xiumei frowned:

"Sister Peony, have you taken a fancy to Daoist Lu?"

"Although Lu Daochang is generous and looks good, he is a Taoist priest after all, and he is probably not in the right mind when he comes to this romantic place."

"For some reason, I just feel that the person is familiar, as if I have met him in a previous life."

Hearing this, Bai Mudan's heart fluttered, and she said.

"Why is it like the opera said?"

Hearing this, Bi'er felt strange.

"Peony~"

"Peony~"

While the two were talking, there was a bustard's voice outside the room.

"Sister Peony, Mammy is calling you."

"It is estimated that the priest has come to our Zuichun Tower again."

Bi'er glanced out the door and said.

After saying that, Bai Mudan turned around, and saw the old bustard running into the house out of breath.

"Peony, are you ready?"

"It's almost there, what do you want to say?" Bai Mudan nodded slightly.

"In Shaohua Pavilion on the third floor, the Taoist priest is already waiting, hurry up and take your guqin."

The old bust urged.

"Guqin, in the past it wasn't..."

Hearing this, Bai Mudanyu was startled and frowned.

"The Taoist priest wants to listen to the music, so you can sing a few songs with him."

said the bustard.

"It's... well, Bi'er is going to fetch my guqin."

Bai Mudan sighed helplessly, and without saying anything, she gave instructions to the maidservant at the side.

After hearing this, the latter hurriedly went to fetch the guqin, and then went with Bai Mudan to the Shaohua Pavilion in Zuichun Tower.

……

Drunken Spring Building, Shaohua Pavilion.

Han Xiangzi has been waiting here for a long time, although the old bustard charged him 500 taels of silver, but the price is fair.

In this room, the furnishings are luxurious, the walls are full of pearls, and the hall is full of beautiful embroidery, which is very interesting.

The preserved fruit pastries provided are also the best choice.

Han Xiangzi ate snacks and drank some green tea from time to time, but he was also leisurely.

After a cup of tea, Wenping, who had brought him here before, poked out his face:

"Daoist, the peony oiran is here."

Hearing this, Han Xiangzi hummed.

Not long after, I heard the sound of the bead curtain being pulled up. Not long after, a woman came into the room with a Guqin in her hand.

This woman, wearing a long dress of bright red and green lotus, has a natural beauty, beautiful eyes, and a graceful figure.

When she came to the room, Bai Mudan thought it would be Lu Daochang waiting for her, but unexpectedly it was not him.

Strangely, also a Taoist.

But the appearance is not inferior to Lu Daochang.

At that moment, Bai Mudan was taken aback for a moment, and Tan's mouth was slightly opened, a little stunned.

After recovering, he bowed his body and saluted:
"Under the peony, what is the name of this priest?"

"Ms. Peony, just call me Daoist Han."

Here, Han Xiangzi was also shocked by the beauty of the white peony. If the beauty of the dragon girl is as playful and agile as Xiaojiabiyu, then the beauty of the white peony is charming and glamorous, each with its own merits.

"Han Daochang, what song do you want to hear?"

Bai Mudan remembered Han Xiangzi's name.

Immediately, she sat in a corner of the screen, with her legs folded, and placed sideways, with a guqin in front of her, inadvertently showing her exquisite and plump figure to the fullest.

"Just sing any song you want."

Han Xiangzi also sat down and said casually.

The words fall.

Bai Mudan didn't say a word, but started to fiddle with the guqin with her slender hands, and after a while, a heart-rending sound of the qin sounded in the room.

The sound of the piano is sometimes low and gentle, like a whisper; sometimes it is distant, like the sky is high and the clouds are wide.

At the same time, Bai Mudan was also singing and humming the new lyrics and music written by literati in the market.

Han Xiangzi listened quietly and closed his eyes unconsciously.

When he left Gushe Mountain, Immortal Hongya gave him a lot of music collections, during which Han Xiangzi also looked through them.

Whether it's the jade flute on his waist, or the guqin in front of Bai Mudan, every syllable and tune has the way of rhythm.

At this moment, Han Xiangzi listened carefully to distinguish the differences.

Besides, when Bai Mudan played the piano and sang, she kept looking at Han Xiangzi.

I thought this leader was pretending to be righteous, but who would have thought that he could really sit still right now?

Spend hundreds of taels of silver, are you really here to listen to the music?

Bai Mudan didn't understand, she was confused.

She thinks she is unparalleled in beauty, even the fairies in the sky may be a little inferior.

Unexpectedly, this Han Xiangzi was indifferent to her beauty.

Involuntarily, Bai Mudan doubted her appearance for the first time.

What surprised Bai Mudan even more was that the Taoist sat up straight within less than half a stick of incense, as if meditating like an old monk.

At the same time, Bai Mudan also heard the sound of a flute.

She searched for the reputation, and found that the jade flute on the Taoist's waist was vibrating and emitting a mysterious light.

"This……"

Bai Mudan was taken aback for a moment, for some reason, she almost forgot the words.

But soon, she straightened her mind, stopped looking at it, and focused on playing the piano and singing.

Strange to say, she seemed to have entered an unspeakable state unconsciously.

I just felt that my heart became more and more quiet, as if in her mind, there was only one guqin left, and when the tune of the piano changed, her mind was also inexplicably drawn.

Become sentimental, sometimes cherish the spring, sometimes the moon and the breeze, sometimes melancholy...

……

It doesn't mean that Han Xiangzi in this room is listening to music in Zuichunlou, and it is said that he is in the Qin Tianjian.

After Lu Dongbin woke up, he accepted Yuan Shoucheng's appointment to observe the Qin Tianjian.

This Qin Tianjian has a principal and a deputy.

The deputy supervisor is Li Chunfeng.

Underneath, there are spring, summer, autumn and winter, each of which belongs to the official.

There are also positions such as Lingtai Lang, Jianhou, Si Li, and Si Chen.

There are more than [-] officials under the Tang Dynasty.

In addition, there are some Taoist people living here, about a hundred people.

After watching the Qin Tianjian, Yuan Shoucheng wanted to keep Lu Dongbin here for dinner.

But Lu Dongbin declined.

He missed the white peony in his heart, thinking about going to Zuichun Tower.

Seeing this, Mr. Shen Ke had no choice but to let him go, sighing in his heart.

What puzzled Mr. Shen Ke was that this Lu Dongbin was clearly a disciple valued by the Zhengyang Immortal, with excellent talent, and a real person at a young age, but why was he fascinated by beauty?
In fact, how did he know that Lu Dongbin was the reincarnation of Emperor Donghua, and he was destined to have a relationship with Fairy Peony.

If not, it is difficult to become a fairy.

……

This Lu Dongbin left the Qin Tianjian and went straight to Zuichun Tower.

Without saying a word, he went to the old bustard, paid a piece of gold, and wanted to go to Bai Mudan's attic.

But he was stopped by the bustard.

"Mommy, why is this?"

"Didn't Pindao pay you?"

Seeing this, Lu Dongbin stopped in his footsteps, and suddenly looked at the old bustard with sharp eyes, which made her tremble for no reason.

"Lu Daochang, I'm sorry, you came late today, and Mudan went to accompany others."
