On the other side of the threshold, there was a young man with dust but unconcealed elegance. He was probably less than thirty years old, wearing jade and sword around his waist. He stood there like a jade tree facing the wind.

Young people have both the heroic spirit that is sharpened on the battlefield and the depressed official spirit that has been influenced by the long-term power.

He is a person who serves as an official at the border and is not a small official.

This is Chen Qingniu's first impression of this uninvited guest.

Beside the man stood a dark man with a short figure, wearing an ordinary Xiliang standard war knife hanging around his waist, named "Qingluan". His sharpness is the best of the "Eight Swords of Vermilion Birds", but his toughness is inferior to the "Fire Spirit" used by the Vermilion Bird Imperial Guard.

It is obvious that this entourage man with a not-stunning appearance is not only a martial artist who tempers his body, but also a practitioner who has entered the house. He practices both martial arts and qi cultivation.

Then the person he was personally guarding, the heroic young man, must have a good status on the border of Xiliang. He is definitely not an ordinary civil servant. He is at least a higher official than Chen Qingniu's official position, and at least a sixth rank.

Because according to the law of the Suzaku military, border civil servants will be equipped with "secret soldiers" with varying quotas when they enter the Sixth Celestial Liver, and they are inseparable from being inseparable from enemy assassins who infiltrate the country and are also known as "Scholar of Wu".

The young official did not cross the threshold, but just smiled at Chen Qingniu who was walking slowly, "I heard Cui Wei say that you are a general and admire you very much. In the letters, Xiaozhu and Xiaowu often talked about you."

Chen Qingniu walked to the door, stood side by side with Xie Shiji, and said in confusion: "Are you the owner of the house opposite?"

The young official did not give the answer, but changed the topic and said with a smile: "Since you and I are colleagues from Xiliang and are both warriors who are determined to make a breakthrough, don't you mind just stopping to discuss it?"

As expected, it is definitely not a good person!

Before Chen Qingniu could answer, the entourage had already piled up his left foot and penetrated the ground with a hidden force of ten feet. At the same time, he punched and quickly hit Chen Qingniu's chest. The fist was invisible and had the power of a tiger and cow. If an ordinary person was hit by this punch, there would be no doubt that he would be killed on the spot.

Chen Qingniu's face was as usual. Xie Shiji moved his body, grabbed the man's fist wrist with his left hand, gently pulled out, and then slapped the entourage's forehead with a palm.

The entourage flew backwards, and most of his body was embedded in the walls of the opposite house.

The young official's face changed drastically and was a little gloomy.

Chen Qingniu remained silent and watched coldly from beginning to end.

I just felt embarrassed for this "young and successful" civil servant.

The strong escort coughed a few times, supported his elbows on the wall, "pulled out" his body. After his feet fell to the ground, his Adam's apple moved slightly, probably forcibly swallowing the blood that was surging up.

As a high-ranking official who practiced the public and achieved the right result, the young master did not get furious, but smiled brightly, "General Chen is indeed powerful. Even his entourage maids are so skillful. I believe that his own cultivation has reached the realm of transformation. My subordinates took a rash move, and I hope General Chen will be willing to let him go. However, with General Chen's belly, I believe he will not be petty with a rough army, right?"

Chen Qing smiled and said, "Guess?"

The man laughed and waved his hand quickly, "No guess! This time I was really abrupt. General Chen forgives his crimes and will be compensated if he turns back."

Chen Qingniu asked bluntly: "With your identity, why are the sisters and boys in the house opposite, living in such a poor life?"

The man said without any vaguely: "As long as people born and raised in this back alley, who will have no secret privacy? Right, General Chen? In short, if the general wants to dig deeper, he can look for clues on the entrance to the city pass between us. It is just a small matter of wasting some money, and there is no need for favors."

Chen Qingniu didn't expect this person to be so stingy, and he was speechless, and said calmly: "If you are afraid that my future is unknown, don't let the two sisters come to my house as maids."

The young official glanced at the burly maid from the corner of his eyes and joked: "General Chen is worthy of being a pleasure. If it weren't for the fact that he was really hasty to return home, he would definitely have a drink with you. With General Chen's tricky eyes and taste, the two sisters will help you, and I feel relieved!"

Xie Shiji remained motionless and remained indifferent, as if he didn't understand the implication of the joke.

Chen Qingniu suddenly rose up from the ground, and a powerful knee hit him, hitting his chest high.

The young official, who could not avoid, put his hands on his knees, pressed Chen Qingniu's knees, and then he stumbled backwards and floated away. After his feet landed on the ground, he still staggered back several steps, so he finally stopped.

Chen Qingniu did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, and the entourage did not draw his sword out of the sheath in the end.

The young official shook his wrists without saying a word, then clasped his fists with both hands and said with a smile: "How about it?"

Chen Qingniu snorted coldly, turned around and walked into the yard, Xie Shiji closed the door, and remained expressionless.

Back at the yard, Chen Qingniu cursed in a low voice: "Damn it! Old turtle bastard!"

The fox fairy, who had reappeared her whereabouts, shook her giggled and said, "Young Master, who are you scolding?"

Chen Qingniu seemed to be angry and pushed back directly, "Who is your son?"

Young Master, slave.

A humble house, a beautiful woman, studying hard in a hard window, and adding fragrance to the red sleeves, isn’t she the talented man and beautiful woman in the novel of a strange ambition?

It’s a pity that Master Chen is so incredible that he can’t even be a good person.

Chen Qingniu moved a bench and sat under the eaves.

The fox fairy and the puppet continued to play chess, and they met the opponents, so they were immersed in them in pairs.

A young fox spirit with a melon-faced face came to the steps and asked timidly: "So the young master is not just a Qi training man, but also a family man?"

Chen Qingniu glanced at her coldly, and the latter was so scared that he ran all the way to the fox fairy.

Another fox spirit with a round face stood on his hips, puffed his cheeks, and said angrily: "You are so arrogant and unreasonable. My sister Luqi is just kind enough to chat with you. You just act like killing monsters and bullying honest people? Believe it or not, I hit you with a punch and your face. I dare not go out to meet people for three days?"

Chen Qingniu looked at the young fox spirit under the steps with his pink fist, which was slightly shorter than the previous one. He remembered the saying that the fox spirit was shaking the big tree for no reason. He was a little amused and did not argue with the little guy. He joked: "You are so powerful, you are almost scared by you."

It tilted its head, "Why do I think you are convinced orally?"

Chen Qingniu said seriously: "How dare you?"

It stared at Chen Qingniu, trying to determine the authenticity.

Chen Qingniu asked: "Do you know the background of the family opposite?"

It stretched out its hand and didn't speak.

Most people don’t understand this gesture, and Chen Qingniu is extremely familiar with it.

He was immediately happy. It turned out to be a little fox that was as bright as himself, so his smile became a little more sincere. "Tell me, what do you want me to exchange for?"

It did not expect that this young immortal master with great magical powers was so straightforward and demented for a moment. After returning to his senses, he quickly turned his head to look at the stone table, with a melon-shaped face of the same age as it, and his lips moved slightly and mute.

It quickly understood, nodded vigorously, and said with confidence: "I want the bitter gall of a century-old anaconda snake to exchange!"

Chen Qingniu said solemnly: "I don't have any horned snake galls, but if there is a hundred-year-old horned snake in the city or outside the city, I can catch it myself and exchange it with you."

It looked carefully at the backbone of the family, the fox fairy who was playing chess. The latter lowered his head and frowned, staring at the dense and complex chess game, with a charming voice and said softly: "Little girl in Hongsleeved, you have become a charming bead, but your foundation is unstable. Now watering it with python bile will only be the result of the seedlings being pulled and encouraged to grow."

The little fox spirit, who was called "Hongxiu" by the fox fairy, wrinkled his round face, "Empress, but Sister Guibao needs it."

The fox fairy said lazily: "In practice, it is most taboo to be involved in cause and effect. The Supreme Master said that there is no way to be misfortune and good and evil, but only people will be rewarded. Good and evil will be rewarded, like shadows. What does it mean? That is to say..."

At first, Chen Qingniu listened with great care, thinking that the fox fairy was at least a lot of age, and she would have some unique insights. She didn't expect that she could tell the truth. It was just a stick of incense. No wonder the two little fox spirits had already squatted together and whispered.

Chen Qingniu rarely used the foundation of military genius to breathe and practice qi without using the "Zhenwu Xin Method" to get started, but instead shrank in the shade of the corridor, yawned, looked up at the blue sky, and wandered thousands of miles.

The game of chess was finally finished, and the painted puppet was sick. For some reason, he lost the chess. The fox fairy who won the chess was not arrogant and still looked lazy. According to the bet, the loser was responsible for packing up the chess pieces. The puppet moved the pieces that were definitely not light to it, putting them into the chess box one by one.

The fox fairy stretched, "Young Master, if you set up a small door in the kitchen in the north to make the houses on both sides connect, so as not to be seen by mortals when they climb over the wall, then I will let Lu Qi and Hongxiu be your ears and tell the young master everything, what about this deal?"

After all, fox charm is not a ghost. If you move around in broad daylight, you will easily be found.

Chen Qingniu nodded and said, "Okay, it's really not suitable for you to come and go on the wall. Opening the door saves you worry and effort, but is there any problem with the He family?"

The fox fairy smiled and said, "I will settle it."

The fox fairy picked up the chessboard box and smiled at the two disciples and said, "Remember not to be playful and go home early."

The two fox spirits nodded together.

The fox fairy used some mysterious magical powers and passed through the wall and passed by in a flash.

After the young fox Hongxiu poured beans into the bamboo tube, Chen Qingniu finally learned the secret of this back-to-tou Lane. It happened in the tragedy more than ten years ago. It turned out that in this alley, the first group of founders of the Lao Eighth Camp in Iron Monument Town, was living in the first place. The Western Liang Iron Cavalry shocked the Suzaku. Almost half of the great reputations of the two countries of the Great Sui Dynasty were made by the Lao Eighth Camp. Then in the Longguan Battle where the Iron Monument Lao Eighth Camp withdrew from the historical stage, the Lao Eighth Camp was severely injured. Most of the eighth camp's heads were killed and injured, and 20,000 elite soldiers were not survived. Two more generals were convicted and beheaded, and were almost ordered by the court to pass the heads.

Nine towns, in short, only two people returned to the military town safely, but they left the army sadly and lived a semi-seclusion in Huitou Lane. Some entourage generals and schools also settled and settled in here with the main generals. Twelve years ago, a group of dead soldiers of the Great Sui Dynasty infiltrated the border from the southern border and sneaked into the Iron Monument Military Town. It is rumored that the five people were all great Sui Dynasty assassins who were skilled in killing, including martial arts masters and swordsmans. The more than ten ancestors of Huitou Lane, whose fathers and old battalions had a connection with the old Battalion, were killed so that they were almost wiped out. From young and strong men to women, children, young and old, the killers were not spared.

Hongxiu also said that judging from the large-scale battle of the Zhuque court, it is definitely not as simple as ordinary revenge between the two countries. It must have involved a certain or digital great monk with a transcendent status.

There were ten families and hundreds of families, and in the end, only one child sister escaped by chance. It was Xiaozhu Xiaowu, who was dependent on each other in the house opposite. It was rumored that the sister was playing hide-and-seek at that time and hid in the inner room between the walls... As for the young man, he followed an older brother to move into the opposite house a few years later. The older brother quickly left, leaving only his younger brother to live with his sister. He had no contact before. He did not have a letter exchange until the end of last year. He turned out to fight on the border of Xiliang and became a serious imperial court official. Mu Shou's side. As for the specific official position, the He family's fox spirit is unknown.

Suddenly, Chen Qingniu sighed, remembering the bodies of Lao Song and others on the horse outside the pass, and his disgust towards the young civil servant was a little less.

Here, in the mouth of the young fox, Yun Danfeng said lightly about the tragedy of the world.

There, it was harmonious and harmonious, and together with the taciturn sect, he and his sisters and young men, all four of them listened in a slanting manner. The young official talked about the ups and downs of fighting on the battlefield, the interesting scandals of promotion in the officialdom, the quarrels and fights in the alleys... Speaking of the cheerful place, the young man said that he had the sword of righteousness, and there were six styles in total! They could break the river, open the sea, conquer the mountains, sweep the demons, kill ghosts, and pacify the world!

The boy squinted his eyes and smiled. The dark-skinned serf was not surprised by this, but he was a little helpless. Sister Xiaozhu heard it and his eyes were full of admiration and longing. Sister Xiaowu turned her head and rolled her eyes, but was bent forward by the sharp-eyed young official and reached out to reward her with a chestnut.

The young official and his close entourage left the military town the next day.

Chen Qingniu asked Old Man Pei to check the records of the pass at the city gate and the household registration files of the General Officer's Office to roughly clarify the context. Now, most of the alleys are portals that have moved in after the tragedy. Most of them were homes in poor places in the city. They didn't know the depth of the water here, so they were kept in the dark. They bought the house here in a daze, and they couldn't regret it. The sisters were named Liu Zhu and Liu Wu. The grandfather Liu Yang once had the nickname of "Tiger Entering the Mountain". His elite cavalry was the best at raids and was the fourth rank of official positions. He was one of the two old camp leaders who lived here temporarily. The Pei family house where Chen Qingniu temporarily lived was a neighbor facing each other.

The Pei family has no living information in the secret archives of the Suzaku Ministry of Justice.

Every family has a difficult sutra to recite.

Afterwards, Chen Qingniu was whimsical and asked the fox demon next door to sew a brand new Taoist robe. His original intention was to have a rough look like a Taoist robe. It didn't have to be too exquisite and exquisite. It was best to use old cloth to cover people's ears and ears. I never thought that the fox's vagina had been boring for too long, and finally had something new to do. As a result, he was very kind to deal with this matter. The little fox Hongxiu held the Taoist robe in both hands, his face full of piousness and solemnity, and carefully handed it to Chen Qingniu, as if he had given his life, which made Chen Qingniu, who wanted to pretend to be a Taoist priest, very embarrassed.

The Vermilion Biblical Dynasty advocated Huang Lao, and Taoism was prevalent. In the seat of the Chongxuan Bureau, it was the first Tao, then Confucianism, and then Buddhism. It was the position designated by Taizu, the founding country. Not only did it formally incorporate the "Tao Ju" into the imperial examination system, but during the dynasty's decline, it also made a big joke that "the prime minister and minister of Zhuque may not be good at governing, but must be proficient in Qing Ci". Without permission, wearing Taoist robe and Taoist crown privately is an act of transgression. According to the law, it is necessary to be moved hundreds of miles or even thousands of miles away. The Vermilion Biblical Dao Temples are numerous, and the Chongxuan Bureau records more than a thousand Taoist temples, and the Taoist robe styles are roughly divided into three types: Dragon and Tiger Ancestral Court, the three are divided into three types: Dragon and Tiger Ancestral Court, and the three are divided into subdivided differences. Especially the Huang Zi nobleman of the Longhu Mountain Ancestral Court, who is known as the Prime Minister of the Feather-Clothed Court, and is no longer worthy of honor.

The piece that Chen Qingniu took over is a typical northern Taoist robe, which is roughly similar to the "Sancang Taoist Temple" of the first major Taoist temple in the northwest.

The Taoist temple, known as "the great road is at the foot of the mountain", spreads its branches and leaves, and countless Taoist priests traveling down the mountain, traveling far away to preach, debuting in Taoist temples, Xiliang, Suzaku, and even from the southern continent.

This is very similar to Longhu Mountain, which is thousands of miles away.

Chen Qingniu felt that it was too new and too exquisite and bright, but he couldn't stand the little fox's look of "I need you to praise you, so I don't mind too many good words". He had to bite the bullet and accept it, and praised it hard for a while. The little fox Hongxiu came and left happily. Of course, it was the wooden door on the north wall of the kitchen. Chen Qingniu couldn't understand how the He family could tolerate dozens of fox monsters living in their homes, and might even help them hide their shadows and provide various strange needs.

Then there was an additional young Taoist priest who was good at catching monsters and catching monsters in Tiebei Jun Town. The origin was unknown. At first, everyone only knew that this person showed his magical powers in the He family's mansion. His talisman was very effective. Next, I don't know which family's daughter was the first to talk about it. He said that the young real person had no idea of ​​the depth of the Taoist craft, but he really couldn't find any fault in his appearance. He was so romantic and handsome, and he was definitely not inferior to the aristocratic children in the capital. Then a lady from the military town, who was famous for her fierceness, claimed that her boudoir often had monsters in the embroidery building in her boudoir, so the young real person who temporarily lived in Huitou Lane brought a magic weapon and carried a peach wood sword on his back, and rushed to her boudoir alone. The head of the family crowded at the entrance of the courtyard was in charge of the business.

The direct descendants and the women of the side house said to the outside world that they saw the yellow paper talisman without fire, the wind and thunder were shaking at the point of the peach wood sword, and the demon was suppressed and destroyed. One was more vivid than the other. Even the servants of the family felt that they had seen the world. The next day, the maid who went out to buy vegetables and said that if they were lying, they would be struck by lightning. They were really unbearable. The most important thing was that the Taoist priest did not charge a penny! Only a handsome figure left! Soon, the iron-stele army town, and everyone knew that there was a young real person who was practicing for heaven. He subdued demons and eliminated demons and did not charge cash, but only accumulated merit for his own practice!

The residents near Huitou Lane, except for the He family's mansion, are considered poor people in Xicheng, so they realize it later and are not very clear that there are young "Taoist gods" around them.
To be continued...
