Chapter 114 Lu Zi said

Chapter 114 Lu Zi said

Ancient Luoyang, a city stretching for three thousand miles, is the most majestic city in the world today.

The city wall is ten thousand meters high, and the emperor is sitting in the city, and he is as virtuous as Lu Zi.

On the bluestone pavement, hawkers and footmen shouted, there were old men dangling with candied haws on their shoulders, and there were children laughing and chasing each other, or singing nursery rhymes, it was peaceful and quiet.

"Did you hear that?"

A woman with a gray cloth wrapped around her head said:

"Qi State and Qin State are fighting more and more fiercely. I just heard that Mr. Shu said that the land in Sui is very tragic. There is a massacre of the city!"

"real or fake?"

Another person was surprised:

"Mass the city. No way, right?"

"Who knows? I heard that Sui angered Qi. The Grand Duke of Qi was so angry that he resisted Qin's pressure and massacred many cities one after another."

Before she finished speaking, the woman suddenly fell silent, but at some point, a tall horse stood beside her. The nobleman rode on the horse and swung the whip. The woman's skin and flesh were torn apart after the beating, and she rolled to the ground begging for mercy.

"How dare you talk nonsense about others?" The noble man was wearing Qi costumes and his voice was cold: "You should be beaten."

As he spoke, he raised his whip high and tried to whip it down again.

The noise on the long street suddenly stopped, and the whip-raising nobleman was surprised. He looked sideways and his expression changed slightly.

But at the corner of the street, there were eighty-one solemn figures, each holding a sword and a shield. The heavy armor was filled with an aura of iron-blooded killing, surrounded by a majestic young man in long clothes, slowly approaching.

One by one, the people bowed their heads, and they all shouted with respect and fear:

"Lu Zi!"

No one knows at this time that there is a great virtuous man named Lu Zi in the secret room. The emperor himself gave him eighty-one armored guards!

And amid the shouts of 'Lu Zi', the majestic young man stepped forward, followed by eighty-one armors.

"Why is that so?"

Lu Zi frowned and asked.

The nobleman riding the tall horse took back his riding whip, hesitated for a moment, jumped down from the horse, and held his hand in front of him:

"Lu Zi doesn't know something. This woman talks nonsense about the affairs of our country, Qi. That's why I am so talented."

"Is it not negotiable by the people?" The young man asked calmly, with a deep look in his eyes: "What is not negotiable by the people is what those in power should not do. What happened to Qi Di?"

The accompanying historian silently engraved this sentence.

The noble man opened his mouth but did not answer.

Lu Xuan frowned, and then gently helped the woman up. His fingers moved slightly, and there was a surge of vitality, which adhered to the woman's wound. The whip marks healed and the pain disappeared.

The woman quickly thanked him.

"Just now, what are you talking about?" Lu Xuan asked kindly.

The woman glanced at the noble man beside her, hesitated for a moment, and then honestly repeated what she had talked about before, without daring to add any exaggeration.

Lu Xuan heard this and frowned.

There was a massacre of the whole city, not just one city?

How could this be?

If I remember correctly, Senior Brother Zhang followed Duke Huan of Qi to conquer Sui.

He thought for a while, looked sideways and asked kindly:

"Is Zhang Ling's name among the rumors?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, murmured for a moment, and nodded:

"I seem to have heard Mr. Shu mention it before. He said he was a pioneer general of the Qi State. He was extremely brave and so on, but I haven't heard of this name recently."

Lu Xuan frowned and nodded, then nodded gently towards the woman:

"I already know, thank you."

The woman was flattered, bowed behind her and quietly stepped aside.

Lu Xuan looked sideways at the nobleman from Qidi and said calmly:

"Since you are a nobleman, how can you do such a thing in front of thousands of people on the street?"

The noble man was also a young man. Although he was afraid, he was still a little unconvinced and couldn't help but say:

"He's just a pariah, so why can't he be beaten?"

Lu Xuan's expression was still calm, but his tone was a little more stern:

"People are human beings, how can they distinguish between noble and inferior?"

The noble man glanced at the Eighty-one Armor who was full of killing and iron-blooded energy. He was a little afraid, but he still had the courage to answer:

"The people are looked down on, and we are valued. This has been happening since ancient times. All people worship us, and we protect all people. Why not punish them occasionally?"

Lu Xuan looked at him deeply, shook his head, and said calmly:

"You hold yourself to be a noble, and regard the people as lowly and contemptible. Have you ever known that public opinion is like a river, and the so-called power holders are the boats. The water can carry the boat, but it can also capsize it!"

The noble man opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

Lu Xuan shook his head. Seeing that he didn't seem to understand yet, he was a little disappointed, but he didn't intend to say anything more. He just took the whip from the noble man's hand and swung it down in his blank eyes.

The noble man fell to the ground and howled miserably.

"You wield your whip at the people, and I can also swing my whip at you. You know it hurts, but the people also know it hurts. Why do you impose on the people what you don't want?"

The noble man's skin was torn and his flesh was torn, he bowed to the ground and begged for mercy, and he no longer dared to speak.

Lu Xuan dropped the whip, gently touched the big horse's head, and left in disappointment.

The eighty-one armors also turned around and followed each other at their sides. Wherever they went, the common people made salutes and the nobles gave way. They all called Lu Zi and were respectful.

The historian who followed him faithfully recorded what happened today.

[Lu Zi was walking in the street, accompanied by eighty-one armors. It happened that the nobles were whipping the people. Lu Zi stopped and asked why. 】

[The noble man said: I am noble, but the people are despised. 】

[Lu Zi said, the king is a boat; the common man is water; water carries the boat, and water overturns the boat. 】

[After speaking, Lu Zi held the whip to the nobles and said: You know the pain, but the people also know the pain, why do you impose on the people what you don't want? 】

[The nobleman begged for mercy, but Lu Zi walked away. 】

This incident made Lu Xuan no longer interested in taking a closer look at Luoyang City, and returned to the storage room in silence.

He first wiped the books in the house one by one. Most of these books were about the opinions of hundreds of disciples of various families. But now, there seems to be an extra person among these disciples, and there are also a few more volumes in the collection. .

After wiping the scroll, Lu Xuan sat on the futon, drank a cup of hot tea, lit a stick of sandalwood, and fell into deep thought amid the aroma.

Massacre the city, with Senior Brother Zhang's temperament, he would never do such a thing.

And I haven’t received a letter from Senior Brother Zhang for a long time.

He had a sudden feeling in his heart and felt a little restless. He drank three cups of hot tea before he calmed down.

"Probably not."

Lu Xuan said to himself attentively:

"Senior Brother Zhang's abilities are astonishing. It's likely that there's something fishy going on here. We'll wait and see for a few more days for news."

As he spoke, he sighed softly. He hadn't seen Senior Brother Zhang for a long time.

Thinking about it, Lu Xuan laughed again and said to himself while laughing:

"Senior Brother Zhang, I am even more powerful this time. I have become famous in Luoyang before you."

As he spoke, he calmed down and gradually withdrew his thoughts. When he woke up from his dream, his figure slowly disappeared from the storage room.

And just after Lu Xuan woke up from his dream, Shou Zang was outside.

Hundreds of horses followed each other, galloping towards them. The leader was riding an iron horse, carrying a mysterious flag, dressed in black and wearing mysterious jade. His body was majestic and majestic, but his crown and hair were disheveled, and he looked embarrassed.

He roared:

"I was entrusted by someone to come to the storage room to see Lu Zi!"

Eighty-one armors stood in front of them, sweat dripping from their foreheads. Although they were frightened, no one retreated.

The noble man dressed in black and wearing black jade roared again:

"Quickly tell me, I have been entrusted by someone to see Lu Zi!"

A maid was frightened and entered the guarding room, but then came out again, trembling:

"Lord Shouzang Shi, he is not here."

While he was talking, an official came in a hurry and made a big gift:

"I have seen Duke Mu of Qin. Why did Duke Mu of Qin go straight to Luoyang?"

In the current era, the princes are showing off their evil deeds, and the Emperor of Zhou has become almost a symbol, and the orders he issues can hardly leave Luoyang.

The middle-aged man who was respected as Qin Mugong looked sideways, majestic and majestic:

"I was entrusted by someone to come here to look for Lu Zi."

As he spoke, his chest heaved and he said angrily:

"The State of Qi massacred hundreds of cities in Suidi. Heaven was angry and people resented this act. Why did the Emperor not punish him?"

His words shook the sky and the entire city of Luoyang.

After a long time, in the center of Luoyang City, in the main hall and above the temple, a loud voice could be heard:

"I can't control it."

Duke Mu of Qin was dejected.

After a while, he waved towards the official and said calmly:

"Since I have promised others, I will wait here for Lu Zi's return. When Lu Zi returns, I will leave."

The officials did not dare to say anything more, bowed and left with all due respect.

This world.

By the time Lu Xuan finished his practice, three days had passed.

"There is still one more opportunity left for the third level of Taishang Jade."

While talking to himself, he slowly opened his eyes, and there was a sudden flash of divine light, a majestic Taoist charm, and an infinitely high scene flashed across his body, accompanied by a faint and dark appearance.

But these visions soon subsided.

Lu Xuan gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, which swirled upwards. He solemnly stretched out his hands, held the green lantern in his palms, and observed silently.

Jade glass lamp.

On this green lamp, the candle flame seems to be eternal, and it seems to reflect the scenes of the heavens and worlds, the past, present and future. However, if you look carefully, you can't see anything clearly.

After a long time, Lu Xuan turned around and gently pushed open the portal to the sky after taking the Yuxu Glazed Lamp into the spiritual world.

Outside the door, Taoist Qingxuan was the leader, Qinghe and Qingping were one step behind, and they all bowed at the same time:

"I've met my ancestors!"

And there are hundreds of thousands of Taoist priests who are still behind them, old and young, ranging from mortals with no cultivation to Taoists at the level of earthly immortals. They all also worship:

“I’ve met my ancestors!!”

Its sound is rumbling, just like thunder.

Lu Xuan accepted it calmly.

Not long after, Taoist Qingxuan, who was shrouded in the mist of chaos, waved his hand, causing many Taoist priests to retreat. He turned around again, looked at Lu Xuan, and saluted again:

"Lu Zu, it's over."

Lu Xuan nodded lightly:

"I have become a disciple."

Taoist Qingxuan smiled:

"Then Ancestor Lu is really the founder of my Guangcheng Palace. If I have any instructions, Guangcheng Palace will go all out."

As he spoke, he said implicitly:

"But Lu Zu forgives me. For some reasons, my descendant Qingxuan cannot leave Guangcheng Palace."

Lu Xuan nodded calmly. He was not surprised that there was a huge creature under his hand. He still spoke calmly:

"There is nothing that Guangcheng Palace needs to do for the time being, but it may happen in the future."

"But Sakata Heavy Industries?" Taoist Qingxuan smiled: "Lu Ancestor's cultivation is still shallow now, so don't be in a hurry and wait for a suitable opportunity."

Lu Xuan's heart moved. The most mysterious Qingxuan Taoist in front of him seemed to have something to say. He thought for a while and didn't say anything more. He simply nodded:

"I shouldn't stay in Guangcheng Palace for too long. I may leave after a while."

"Let Qinghe and Qingping protect each other." Taoist Qingxuan said softly: "I, Guangcheng Palace, have to join the world. I have to join the world."

After a pause, he continued:

"Qinghe is an eighth-level immortal, but he is experiencing a plague. In terms of fighting, he is probably similar to the second- and third-level earth immortals. Qingping is a ninth-level true immortal, and can be regarded as standing at the top in the outside world."

Lu Xuan swallowed, his heart beat slightly faster, and he coughed lightly:

"Then I won't refuse."

An earthly immortal and a true immortal accompany each other.

Unless he faces off against the top leaders such as Sakata Heavy Industries and the cult, he seems to be able to go sideways in the world, right?

Taoist Qingxuan nodded at this time, stepped aside, and immediately told Qinghe and Qingping:

"Outside, everything is focused on Ancestor Lu."

After a pause, he turned his head meaningfully, looked at Lu Xuan, and said:

"By the way, there is one more thing. If Lu Zu has some free time, he might as well go to Gouxian Town on the edge of the mountain range. Take a walk there and take a good look. Maybe he can learn something, maybe."

"Can clear up confusion."

Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment and became curious, is it Gou Xianzhen?

Suddenly, he thought of the townspeople who were behaving a little strangely. He nodded thoughtfully and said solemnly:

"I'll follow and go, thanks for the advice."

"That's what I should do." Taoist Qingxuan bowed again, then left and returned to the bright room behind the Tongtian portal. He didn't seem surprised by the disappearing green lantern, and just sat quietly on the futon. The chaotic aura flowing slowly around him was blurry and hazy.

Lu Xuan took a deep look at the Taoist Qingxuan and said nothing more. Instead, he nodded towards Qinghe and Qingping.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a true immortal and an earthly immortal, he walked out of Guangcheng Palace.

"Bantian Heavy Industry Cult, Langya Provincial Prefecture, Gouxian Town"

Lu Xuan talked to himself, the brilliance in his eyes gradually brightened, but he did not feel arrogant because he had a true immortal by his side, but remained silent.

"You two, let's go and visit Gouxian Town first."

Qingping and Qinghe looked at each other and bowed respectfully:

"Yes, Lu Zu."
