Chapter 130 Extra Story 2

Shen Qiao really wanted to go back to Chang'an. After all, Yuan Ying was still helping him watch the construction of Xuandu Temple in Chang'an, and the other party was inexperienced, so he couldn't be left alone for too long.

Once the Xuandu Temple is completed, there will be an edict issued by the Sui Dynasty, and it is unlikely that the emperor will summon him personally. At that time, he will also be the headmaster. If Yuan Ying, who is clumsy, goes to the imperial front to deal with it, Shen Qiao does not need to imagine, Know that is very inappropriate.

After thinking about it properly, Shen Qiao went to find Yu Shengyan and prepared to say goodbye to him. Who would have guessed that for two days in a row, Yu Shengyan either left early or came back late.

Yu Shengyan smiled and said: "Now the teacher is sick in bed, and the disciples take care of it. I have to run errands around, you see—"

He raised the letter in his hand, "I still have to help Shizun deliver the letter to Master Yi Guan. If you have something to do, Daoist Shen, you might as well go and tell Shizun directly. If you want to come to Shizun, there will be no refusal!"

Shen Qiao stopped him and coughed lightly: "Actually, there is no need to find him, I just want to say goodbye, the same as you said."

Yu Shengyan said seriously: "Shen Daochang, you and my master have a very close relationship. If the master knows that you are saying goodbye in private, I am afraid that he will take anger at me. If you want to leave, it is better to tell the master in person, so as not to make me embarrassed. what!"

Shen Qiao came to Yu Shengyan just because he didn't want to go to Yan Wushi.

In fact, deep in his heart, he really didn't know how to face Yan Wushi, so he could only choose this way of escape.

Yu Shengyan was about to speak, when someone came out in a hurry and whispered a few words to him, Yu Shengyan's face changed suddenly, and he lost his voice: "How can this be, isn't it good in the morning!"

Shen Qiao heard it clearly, and his heart suddenly raised: "What's the matter?"

Yu Shengyan reluctantly calmed down, reversing the stance he had just retained: "It's nothing, I still have some things to do, please forgive me for a while!"

After saying this, he turned his head and hurried away with the visitor, without giving Shen Qiao any chance to react.

Shen Qiao stood there, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what he had just said should have something to do with Yan Wushi, the more he thought about it, the more nervous he became, so he turned around and walked towards Yan Wushi's house instead.

Before he got close to the house, he had already seen people going in and out, some holding hot water in and out, some holding changed old clothes.

His heart skipped a beat, and without caring about anything else, he broke into the room directly.

Bypassing the screen is the bedroom.

There was a person lying on the bed, undoubtedly Yan Wushi.

The other party's eyes were tightly closed, and his face was cold and white.

At that moment, Shen Qiao's heartbeat almost stopped, he stepped forward quickly, he was about to pinch the other person's wrist to check the pulse.

Yan Wushi opened his eyes slowly at this time.

"Aren't you going to leave, why are you still here?"

The tone of voice was cold, without the slightest smile from before, and even the eyes that looked at Shen Qiao were like a pool of cold water, bottomless.

Shen Qiao was startled.

The parting words reached his throat, but he couldn't spit out a half sentence.

Yan Wushi closed his eyes again, and said lightly: "I'm fine, just leave if you want."

What he wanted to do and what goals he wanted to achieve in the past was really unscrupulous. Since Shen Qiao has been with him since then, it can be considered that he has a deep understanding of this person. At this time, seeing him turn against the smiling Yanyan attitude of that day, he changed his mind. It was unusually cold, and there was no half-dissolved joy in my heart, but it was indescribably awkward.

Shen Qiao settled down: "Save people to the end, since I carried you off the Banbu Peak, I will leave until you are fully recovered."

Originally thought that he was fine, but who knew that just when he came out, Shen Qiao's heart was lifted again.

But Yan Wushi refused to let him take the pulse: "Thank you, Headmaster Shen, you have spared no effort to save this seat several times, and this motto is remembered in your heart, but the Huanyue Sect has its own good doctor, so I don't dare to bother Headmaster Shen again. "

He tucked his hands into the quilt, closed his eyes, and pretended to sleep.

Yu Shengyan stood beside him, perhaps unable to bear Shen Qiao's stunned appearance, and said, "Shen Daochang..."

Shen Qiao regained his senses and asked him, "I just saw blood on my clothes, what's the matter?"

Yu Shengyan said embarrassedly, "I was the one who was cutting the fruit, and I accidentally cut my hand."

He raised his hand to signal, and there was a gap in the palm of his hand, the blood had stopped, and the powder was sprinkled on it.

However, Shen Qiao has also seen the most hideous wounds, which is simply insignificant.

Yushengyan is talented and intelligent, and he has the style of a teacher in martial arts. What he lacks is only experience and experience, but such a low-level mistake as cutting fruit, let alone Yushengyan, even a person with a little martial arts will not make it. , but Shen Qiao was a little confused at this time, and he didn't notice such a simple and absurd question.

He looked back at Yan Wushi, who still closed his eyes and seemed to have fallen asleep.

As a person of Shen Qiao, he definitely couldn't do such a thing as stepping forward to shake people up. He suddenly felt a sense of grievance in his heart: It was obviously you who came to provoke me, why did you turn around and deny it when something happened?

Naturally, Shen Qiao wouldn't be so straightforward as he thought, but that's exactly what it means.

Yu Shengyan was in the middle of the two, and the higher the feeling, the awkward atmosphere. In order to prevent himself from continuing to be embarrassed, he hurriedly opened his mouth to break the deadlock: "Shen Daochang, I just want to go back to Chang'an to see my senior brother, why don't we go back together?"

However, Shen Qiao shook his head: "You are good to take care of your master, I will go first."

He didn't look at Yan Wushi again, but his tone was also very light, obviously because he took care of the patient's rest.

Looking at the back of Shen Qiao leaving, Yu Shengyan touched his nose: "Master, is it going too far? Daoist Shen seems to be angry."

Yan Wushi opened his eyes and said lazily, "If you don't take any strong medicine, you can get good results?"

He glanced at Yu Shengyan again: "I treat him so coldly, naturally I have my intentions, you can't be disrespectful to him."

Yu Shengyan hurriedly said: "Disciple dare not!"

How dare he, not to mention that Shen Qiao has a close relationship with his master, just to say that Shen Qiao's martial arts ranks among the top ten in the world, and he is the head of a sect, no matter what, it is an existence that Yu Shengyan needs to look up to.

"Then if Daoist Shen really left...?" Don't play too much, Shen Qiao is soft on the outside and hard on the inside, soft on the outside and tough on the inside.

Yan Wushi smiled slightly: "Actually, he already had this intention in his heart, but he couldn't hold back his face, but he was nothing more than his own Dao heart."

Yu Shengyan thought to himself, why didn't I see it at all?

Yan Wushi seemed to know what he was thinking: "You have to learn from the edge of Mei Duo for a few years when you look at people's eyes."

Seeing through his mind at a glance, Yu Shengyan secretly stuck out his tongue, naturally he didn't dare to say anything.

Shen Qiao really said that he would leave. Early the next morning, before Yu Shengyan had time to say goodbye, he had already received a report from a servant saying that Daoist Shen had left.

However, before Shen Qiao left, he did not forget to leave a few prescriptions and medicinal pills for Yan Wushi to recuperate his body.

He is kind by nature, but kindness doesn't mean stupid. Yan Wushi suddenly pretended to be sick. Even if Shen Qiao couldn't get the pulse, he guessed something after he went back. He couldn't help feeling angry, so he originally planned to leave in two days. The idea of ​​​​directly changed to leave early the next day.

At the beginning, Shen Qiao was indeed heading in the direction of Chang'an, but when he reached Fengzhou, he actually met Yuan Ying who came to look for him.

After Shen Qiao was in charge of Xuandu Mountain again, he sent two elders to assist Yuan Ying. Although Yuan Ying was not good at fortifications, he was trembling every day and went to the scene to inspect until Gu Hengbo also went to Chang'an to find Shen Qiao. Yuan Ying found that Gu Hengbo was far more meticulous than himself in supervising the construction of fortifications, just as the news of the battle between Yan Wushi and Hulu was spread all over the world, Yuan Ying was worried that Hulu would win, and he was even more worried that Hulu would find him after he won. Shen Qiao was in trouble, so he entrusted the matter of Xuanduguan to Gu Hengbo, and he himself left Chang'an and came to find Shen Qiao.

Among the five disciples of Qi Fengge, except Yuan Ying, who was not familiar with the general affairs, devoted himself to practicing and reading books, and never left Xuandu Mountain for half a step, the other four actually had their own advantages. When they took over the teaching from Qi Fengge, they also helped a lot. Tan Yuanchun was good at tuning and teaching disciples, Yu Ai was good at trivial daily official duties, and although Gu Hengbo was a woman, Shen Qiao did not discriminate against her. don’t think so, teaching her and teaching Yuan Ying are the same. Although Gu Hengbo’s temperament is a little colder, he is resolute in his work, and his rules are clear and neat. With her help in supervising the construction of Xuandu Temple and arranging matters in the capital, Shen Qiao is naturally more at ease than Yuan Ying. .

After the two brothers met, Yuan Ying knew that Shen Qiao was fine, so he was relieved. Shen Qiao knew that Gu Hengbo was helping Chang'an, so he was not in a hurry to go. Take a look.

As for the Chen Dynasty, Shen Qiao only came here once. At that time, Yu Wenqing went south as the envoy of the Zhou Dynasty, and Yan Wushi was entrusted by Zhou Zhu Yu Wenyong to go with him. Shen Qiao was also among them. His eyes are not good. In order not to trouble others, he even went out to the post house only once. Chen Chao is so large, but he only learned about scales and claws. Take a good look.

At that time, although there was Chen in the south and Sui in the north, apart from the Turks, there was another small country, Liang, whose capital was Jiangling, and Pubu, which occupied the southwest of the Chen Dynasty. In the suffering of war and displacement, they all hope that there will be a wise master who can calm the north and south, determine the central plains, and enable them to live a relatively stable life, but they have been looking forward to it for hundreds of years, and they are looking forward to the chaos of China and the south. Changing dynasties, from the Song Dynasty to the current Chen Dynasty, and looking forward to the north to replace the Zhou Dynasty with the Sui Dynasty, but after all, failed to look forward to the day of reunification. In the end, who is more likely to dominate the mountains and rivers, or whether they will be taken advantage of by the Turks in the end.

There are too many variables in the turbulent times. Who belongs to this proposition in the world? At that time, no one of insight could guarantee the answer with his life, not even Yan Wushi, because the Yu Wenyong he was optimistic about before was precisely because his descendants would not survive. , Accidentally, the country changed its flag.

Now Yang Jian of the Northern Dynasty is showing the appearance of a hero, but the gentry in the south despise him a lot. They think that this person used to be a minister under the Xianbei people, and even his surname is Xianbei. Now that he usurped the throne and became emperor, he immediately gave him It is shameless to be crowned with the Han surname, but also to go back to the roots and link his ancestors with the Central Plains family. How can such a person unify the world?

The Confucian school prides itself on being orthodox, and there are Confucian schools such as Linchuan Academy in the Southern Dynasty. Naturally, they also regard Lord Chen as orthodox, and believe that Lord Chen is the wise ruler who can rule the world.

Judging from the current point of view, Lord Chen is well-established and his politics is relatively clear, but he does indeed have the sign of peace.

Shen Qiao supported Yang Jian, not because he listened to Yan Wushi's words, but because he did see Yang Jian's shrewdness and strength. To be the king of a country, not only should he be shrewd, but also be tolerant of others. These advantages are all of Yang Jian. some.

But these alone are not enough, so he plans to go to Chen Chao to take a walk. While relaxing, he can also experience the customs of Chen Chao in person, which is a hundred times better than listening to what he said.

On the way to Jiankang, Shen Qiao also met a family who was planning to go to Jiankang from Jiangzhou. Knowing that he also went to Jiankang, he invited him to go with him.

Jiangzhou is currently the territory of the Sui Dynasty. From Jiangzhou to Jiankang, it is equivalent to crossing the North and South dynasties. Although the court could not help people to communicate with each other, but now the North and South are separated. When looted, they are often accompanied by large groups of people.

The wife of the Li family had died of her husband, and she was going to take her daughter to Jiankang to defect to her family. Although there were servants along the way and the escorts were hired, she still felt unsafe. Long sword, it can be seen that his skills are not bad. In these years, when you are a long-distance family member, more people will help you more. When Shen Qiao sees the other party's orphans and widowed mothers, and they are indeed on the same road, he agrees to come down and ride with the escort of the escort all the way.

The escort company dispatched four people this time, and the head escort was named Liu. This was because the Li family paid a lot of money, otherwise they would only send two people at most, because in the eyes of the escort company, it was only to protect two weak women. The other party and the servants and others are not difficult at all.

Escort Liu was a little curious about Shen Qiao at first, and also asked to inquire about his identity. Shen Qiao didn't tell the truth, but only said that he was only a monk of Xianyun Yehe, who had studied kung fu for a few years and traveled the world.

There are many Taoist priests wandering around these days. Master Liu has traveled south and north. Naturally, he has seen a lot of them. After listening to it, he has no interest. Instead, he feels that Shen Qiao may have confused the little lady of the Li family by relying on her appearance. , maybe coveting the beauty of someone else's little lady, or something else.

In fact, it's not that he thinks so, because the little lady of the Li family is young, and her love is just beginning. She really has no resistance to a Taoist priest like Shen Qiao. Although it is difficult to show her face in person in front of the public, she also sends someone over to deliver it. A few times, it was either pastries or something else. Even though he brought a copy of Guard Liu, how could Guard Liu not see that she was going for Shen Qiao?

Regarding Master Liu's misunderstanding, Shen Qiao knew that it was useless to explain it, and it would become more and more dark.

So everyone walked for a few days, and when they reached the foot of Qianlong Mountain in Huainan, there was still a long way to go to a town where they could stay overnight.
