The Chronicles of Longevity on Liaozhai Road

After entering the city gate, after three turns and two turns, we finally came to the gate of Dengtian Temple.

To say that Yang Heng has been away from his lair for a while, and now that he is back, he is really emotional.

Let him know when he went out this time, a thousand days at home is good, but a day out is difficult.

Er Ya, who was following Yang Heng, had no time to look at Yang Heng and sigh here. She stepped forward and pushed Yang Heng, then walked directly to the gate, took out the key from her pocket, and opened the door.

At this time, Yang Heng seemed to have calmed down from his imagination, and followed Erya into the gate.

After entering the door, Yang Heng looked at his small Taoist temple, then pointed to a room in the west wing, and said, "Linglong and Zhuzhu will live in that room from now on."

Erya looked at it and nodded in satisfaction, that room was exactly opposite to the East Wing where they lived.

Pearl and Linglong agreed "yes" in a low voice, and then went to tidy up the room under Yang Heng's command.

Next, Yang Heng asked Erya to buy some food from the small restaurant next to him for dinner, and then the few people who were tired all the way went back to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, Yang Heng woke up under Er Ya's scolding.

Yang Heng rubbed his eyes that were still a little dazed, and looked out of the window helplessly. This Erya really has energy. After walking for two days, she just had a night's rest and got up so early.

Yang Heng put on his Taoist robe helplessly, opened the door and looked outside, only to see Erya standing in the yard, directing Linglong to clean the yard with his hands.

This Linglong is also interesting. When Yang Heng didn't show up just now, she moved very fast, but she was afraid to slow down and let Erya find a fault and give her a lesson.

But now as soon as Yang Heng appeared, this Linglong immediately showed a delicate appearance, holding a broom in her hand, with teary eyes, as if she had been wronged so much.

But Yang Heng is not the first brother, he doesn't pay much attention to these little girls' tricks at all, so he just turned his head and went straight to the main hall, offering incense to Patriarch Sanqing.

And now Erya is even more proud of receiving Yang Heng regardless of Linglong.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and sweep the yard, and cook later. If you're a little slower, I won't give you food today."

Seeing that her savior was hopeless, Linglong immediately moved quickly, and within a short time, she swept the entire yard clean.

Next, Erya took Linglong and Pearl to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast.

To say that Erya is now alive, she used to do the cooking herself, but now she just stands at the door of the kitchen and directs the two maids.

After breakfast, Yang Heng straightened his Taoist robes, and then said seriously to Erya: "We haven't done morning classes during this time, and we have fallen behind a lot. Starting today, we will get up early and do morning classes first. Then do something else."

Erya was still very serious about the practice, so when Yang Heng said, she nodded solemnly.

"That's exactly what it should be."

The next two people put on brand-new Taoist robes, and then entered the main hall together, and began to do morning lessons in front of the Sanqing Patriarch.

Linglong and Zhenzhu, who had nothing to do, stood outside the hall and looked at Erya enviously.

Because they have never participated in any large-scale activities since they were born, all ancestor worship and other activities are not allowed to enter the cafeteria at all.

Just in the middle of the morning class, there was a knock on the door of Dengtian Temple.

Facing the sudden knock on the door, Yang Heng still chanted scriptures with his eyes closed and ignored it.

But Erya's concentration was a little weaker. Although she was still reciting the scriptures, her eyes were moving around, and she seemed to be a little unable to sit still.

But Yang Heng was on top, Erya didn't dare to move, she could only grit her teeth and persist until the morning class was over.

After the morning class was over, Yang Heng opened his eyes and said to Erya who was scratching her ears and cheeks, "Open the door and see who is here."

Erya got Yang Heng's order, and immediately jumped up from the futon, and then ran out of the room quickly.

Erya opened the door and looked outside, and there was a yamen servant standing outside.

"Who are you looking for?"

The yamen servant was very polite, first bowed to Erya, and then said respectfully: "Is it Wang Xiaoxiangu in person?"

Erya nodded reservedly, but did not speak.

Seeing that there are finally people in Dengtian Temple, the yamen servant hurriedly said with a smile: "I am ordered by the magistrate of the county to come to see Daoist Yang Heng Yang."

As for Yang Heng's matter, Erya didn't dare to make decisions casually, so she said, "Wait here, I'll go in and report."

After Erya finished speaking, she closed the door of the Taoist temple again and returned to the main hall.

"Brother, there is a messenger looking for you outside, saying that the magistrate asked him to come."

After Yang Heng heard this, his mind turned in a circle. Could it be that Grandpa Liu Quan is in a hurry, otherwise he would send someone to look for him the next day after he entered the house the first day.

"Hurry up and bring people in."

Er Ya got the order to leave the main hall, walked a few steps, stopped suddenly, and then said to Ling Long who was standing aside: "You, go and bring in the yamen servants from outside."

Linglong fell under Erya's hands, which was considered a disaster.

There was no way, how could people not bow their heads under the eaves, Linglong could only walk to the gate aggrieved and opened it.

She looked outside, and sure enough there was a yamen servant standing there.

"Come in, our Daoist is waiting for you in the hall."

The yamen servants outside were taken aback by this Linglong. He had never heard of other women besides Erya in this Taoist temple. What's the matter? Why is there another handsome maid?

Although he was puzzled, the yamen servant was very calm on the surface, and followed Linglong into the Taoist temple.

When he entered the Taoist temple, he found that Yang Heng was already waiting for him in front of the Sanqing Hall.

When the yamen servant saw Yang Heng, he hurriedly took three steps and made two steps, and came to him and bowed his hands.

"Little one, I have met Daoist Yang."

"Grandpa asked you to come to me, what do you have to say?"

"Return to the Taoist priest, our master asked the Taoist priest to go to the county government to discuss something important."

Yang Heng frowned and thought for a while. On the way from Kaoshantun to Xiangfu County, he also encountered several taverns, big and small, and never heard of anything happening in the county town?

Seeing that Yang Heng was in a daze, the yamen servant hurriedly said: "Master Daoist, our master knew that Daoist Master was back last night, but he knew that Daoist Master was tired all the way, so he didn't bother, and sent me to meet Daoist Master early this morning. gone."

The meaning of this yamen servant is very obvious, that is, to tell Yang Heng that their master has been waiting impatiently, so let's go quickly and don't think about anything else.

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll straighten my clothes, and I'll let you go right away."

After finishing speaking, Yang Heng asked Erya to greet the yamen servant, and went back to his room to pack his clothes.

After a while, Yang Heng came out of the room again, wearing a brand new silk sermon robe.

Afterwards, Yang Heng asked Erya to guard the gate, followed the yamen servant out of the gate, and went straight to the county yamen in the center of the county.

When they arrived at the county yamen, Liu Quan, the county magistrate, had been waiting at the gate with three classes of yamen servants for a long time.

As soon as Liu Quan saw Yang Heng coming, he immediately threw off his subordinates, came to Yang Heng, grabbed his hand, and shook it vigorously.

"The Taoist priest has been away for some time, but he wants to die."

Yang Heng was a little uncomfortable with his overly closeness, so he quietly took out his hand, and then said with a slap in the face: "It's really a poor person's discomfort to make your lord miss you."

After that, the two exchanged a few words at the gate, and then County Magistrate Liu Quan brought Yang Heng to the back hall of the county government office, and then took their seats.

After the maids brought the fragrant tea and left the back hall, Liu Quan said to Yang Heng, "The Taoist priest has been traveling around for a while, haven't you heard any news?"

Yang Heng was taken aback by his question, he really hadn't heard of what happened.

"I want to be lazy, please tell me clearly."

Liu Quan put down his teacup, squinted his eyes, and said seriously: "During this time, the White Lotus Sect in Shandong has become more and more presumptuous. However, due to the powerful magic power of its leader Xu Hongru, the imperial court sent people to encircle and suppress it several times but failed."

Yang Heng was a little surprised after hearing the news.

He had confronted Xu Hongru for a while, but according to his thinking, although Xu Hongru was powerful, he was not much better than the offerings from the imperial court.

But now, according to Liu Quan, the county magistrate, the masters of the imperial court have returned with broken feathers one after another. Could it be that Xu Hongru has obtained some treasures during this period, or has his mana improved greatly?

Chapter 284 Help

Liu Quan, the magistrate, also saw Yang Heng's doubts, "Let's tell the Taoist priest the truth, this Xu Hongru's original strength is no more than that of several priests of the imperial court, but this time I don't know where he came from. Got a baby."

When he said this, Liu Quan also showed a trace of fear on his face.

"That baby is really powerful. Once activated, the sky will be full of dark clouds, crying and howling under the clouds, and almost everyone will be absent-minded. If they are not careful, their souls will be absorbed into the clouds."

Yang Heng frowned, what kind of treasure is this?It turned out to be so powerful.

Liu Quan sighed, and then said: "Now the matter of the White Lotus Sect has alarmed the big bosses in the court, and even the emperor has asked about it."

"My lord, I'm just a countryman, I can't interfere with this important matter in the court."

"Haha, where did the Taoist priest think?" When Liu Quan said this, there was a hint of sarcasm on his face.

"That's how it is. The imperial court has made up its mind to destroy the White Lotus Sect, so it has summoned capable people and strangers from all over the world to fight together, and the Taoist priest has received the imperial court's token, and is now on the list."

After saying this, Liu Quan picked up the teacup, took a sip from the corner of his eyes, and peeked at Yang Heng to see his expression.

Yang Heng may have thought about it and felt a bit of a headache, but in fact he didn't want to get involved in the muddy waters of the White Lotus Sect.

You must know that the White Lotus Sect has some background, especially that the Buddha's mother is so powerful, even I am afraid that I am not an opponent.

Maybe now that the Buddha mother has obtained the clone of the Bright Bodhisattva, she no longer pays attention to the affairs of the White Lotus Sect, but as long as she bestows one or two treasures, it will be enough for the people on her side to accept.

Liu Quan, the county magistrate, was a little unhappy when he saw Yang Heng.

"Daozhang, you have been favored by the court during this period of time. Why do you just shirk like this when the court needs the help of the Taoist priest?"

Yang Heng looked a little angry at the county magistrate. It seemed that if he hadn't made a move, he would have no good fruit in the future.

Although Yang Heng himself is not afraid of the opponent's secret guard, now Yang Heng is not like when he just came to this foreign world, he can do whatever he wants.

He also has to take into account all aspects of the meaning.

In the end, Yang Hengsi thought about it and felt that it was nothing to just take a trip. After all, this time it was not only him, but also other great sects who made the move together. When the time came, he would hide behind and keep his own safety first.

"My lord, it is the duty of us monks to subdue demons and demons, and maintain the stability of the world. Since the imperial court needs me to take action, then it is better to be respectful than obedient."

When Liu Quan, the county magistrate, heard that Yang Heng agreed, the cloud on his face disappeared immediately, and a smile reappeared on his face.

"Okay, I know that the Taoist priest understands righteousness deeply. If I can destroy the White Lotus Sect this time, I will definitely ask the court for credit, and then I will greatly seal the Taoist priest."

Yang Heng smiled wryly and shook his head.

He doesn't need any seals, what he wants is to cultivate in peace, preferably without any interruptions, he will be peaceful all the way, and finally reach the other side.

"Daoist Yang, look at this. You have just come back and rested in the Taoist temple for a few days. When there is news from the court in a few days, I will immediately send someone to invite the Taoist priest."

"Okay, let's do it."

After Yang Heng finished speaking, he stood up and said goodbye.

Liu Quan personally sent Yang Heng out of the gate, only to come back when he saw Yang Heng disappear at the corner of the street.

After Liu Quan returned to the back hall, there was already a man who looked like a wealthy businessman sitting there, who was none other than Hao Jie.

It should be said that this Hao Jie was also a member of the secret agents of the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and at the same time served as an enshrinement of the court.

He has a lot of weight in the court.

Seeing this person, Liu Quan hurried forward and bowed deeply, and then said, "Liu Quan has seen your lord."

Hao Jie nodded, then pointed to the seat next to him for Liu Quan to sit down.

Next, the servant girl removed the residual tea and replaced it with new fragrant tea.

Only then did Liu Quan ask, "My lord, do you value Daoist Yang so much?"

When Liu Quan said this, he was still somewhat disapproving. It was undeniable that Yang Heng was capable, but Liu Quan didn't think he could compare to the court priest sitting above.

Holding the teacup, Hao Jie sighed, and said, "This Yang Heng doesn't know his origin, but his mana is very powerful."

When he said this, Hao Jie put down his teacup, his eyes became hollow.

"Some time ago, this Yang Heng subdued a fox demon in the Kaifeng mansion. That fox demon was not small. Since the imperial court opened, this fox demon has been causing trouble among the people. The enshrinement hall has been encircled and suppressed several times, but she is safe and sound. leave."

Hao Jie seemed to wake up a little bit when he said this. He took a sip of tea, refreshed himself, and then said: "This demon fox has another treasure, which is a crested hairpin. This treasure is rare in today's world. That's right, but after that Yang Heng subdued the fox demon, the whereabouts of this treasure is unknown, I think it should have fallen into his hands."

Liu Quan seemed to understand something when he heard this, so he interjected, "Could it be that this protection is necessary for the encirclement and suppression of the White Lotus Sect this time?"

"That's right, Xu Hongru didn't know what kind of luck he had, and he got a treasure with deep yin. Now the whole court has no choice but to take this treasure. In the end, an old priest remembered the crested hairpin."

"The old priest thought that the phoenix transformed by the crested hairpin was a thing of pure yang, and it was the nemesis of the treasure that Xu Hongru knew."

Liu Quan thought for a while when he heard this, and then said: "In this case, it's better to ask that Yang Heng to offer the treasure, so as to save trouble."

"Your thinking is too simple. If it was a few months ago, I would also have the same idea, but now that Yang Heng can subdue the fox demon, he should have already practiced the golden core. It is too late for a character like this to curry favor with the court. , how could you offend me?"

"But I see that Yang Heng is very weak, and the Liu family in Fucheng can handle him."
