new year book

Chapter 23

On the eighth day of March, the secret place of Cangshan Mountain suddenly rained heavily. The rain did not know where it came from, but it only fell a few hundred meters around the secret place.

Early yesterday morning, Xue Run was making his fourth pagoda in the secret realm. Somehow, a pot of pagoda that was about to be completed was overturned on the ground. The pagodas are all water-based formations and secret treasures, which can be picked up It was put away, but some secret treasures sank as soon as they saw the soil, causing the water on the ground and underground to get out of control together, and finally affected the climate in the sky above.

"The beast is in the cage, wandering around..." Xue Run babbled, leaving the troubles all over the place, turned around and went out of the secret realm, turned on the computer, and tossed at Waiwaike: "Call the second leader, call the second leader, The chicken coop in the backyard of your house has collapsed, will you help it?"

Li Guoping got out of the car, and some of his subordinates held umbrellas. He looked at the gloomy sky strangely, and then looked at the places where there was no rain on the left and right and sighed: "It's just that the little Danmen is in constant trouble, those people..."

Raindrops rolled on his woolen military uniform, he shook his sleeves, and the rain bounced off.

Li Guoping has had a difficult time recently. The warship was lost. The case has not been solved so far. The reports have been filed endlessly and handed over layer by layer. No one can believe it. How did such a large warship disappear?Li Guoping couldn't explain it, so he could only delay.What someone said on it was very interesting: "There are so many imperialist cannons and warships, why do we rob us of our own?"

This is a truth, but who to complain to.

The monks on the real cultivator side also made trouble for them.It’s not about adjusting the files today, and then we have to cooperate tomorrow. If there is any movement, we need to send a lot of local forces here to enforce martial law and help deal with unexpected incidents. These are all large-scale activities.The only consolation is that after so many years, it was the first time that Bi Lieyao treated him with such a humble attitude.

From the beginning, he was happy to see that the core monks were unlucky, but after one piece of bad news came, Li Guoping couldn't sit still.This is not throwing away a person, but a group of throwing away, and that murder case.Four of the seven Jindan Patriarchs who followed to open up last time were injured and died. Li Guoping vaguely smelled the feeling of the end of the world in the air.

Unlucky things didn't allow him to breathe at all, the secular department was quietly robbed in several secret realms that were opened up.Later, a cable reported that there were several great sects on the side of the core of cultivation, and the big caves were also robbed. This time they didn't kill anyone. Those people were very happy. They entered other people's houses and took away their family property up.

For a long time, the secular world and the inner core have lived in peace, only cooperating with each other and not interfering with each other.Now, the entire household of the core people has migrated to the secular world. What kind of impact will those old antiques have on the real world?Li Guoping was devastated.His opinion above was to take the opportunity to divide the core of comprehension. However, after a few contacts, Li Guoping found to his disappointment that no matter what happened to him, he would put his hopes on that illusory person, and he would not accept him at all. Any temptation, he should use it or use it the same.

Many sects that used to have private contacts with Li Guoping broke up their families and moved to the secular world together to seek refuge, and groups of families fled.After arranging accommodation, arranging routes, arranging new identities, and arranging people to take care of him, Li Guoping realized that he was getting old, and felt that after understanding this matter, he should retire, and raising random flowers and birds would be better than now.

This feeling of slow knife killing is too uncomfortable.

A few days ago, there was a sect called Yuan's family in the inner core. They were originally stationed in the Nanyue Qingyutan Cave Mansion Qingxiu. In order to avoid disasters, they found a disciple of the sect and invited Li Guoping to go there. I hope he can arrange people from this family to go up and down directly. A family of one hundred and ten people, plus four or five hundred disciples from the inner and outer sects dispersed for refuge.

How to accommodate so many people, Li Guoping racked his brains and arranged for two months.Originally, he was doing good deeds, but the second master of this family has a temper like a stubborn donkey, he doesn't say a word of kindness, and looks casual, which makes Li Guoping angry.After tearing the liver, I have to take care of it.There was nothing he could do, he thought of the Hong Taishan family who honestly lived in seclusion in Cangshan, Zhengliang City.

Isn't there a botanical garden on the mountain? Over the past few years, Yang Xiangzi bought all the surrounding places for peace.It's really good over there, all year round, but the flower wholesaler will occasionally go there, it's really appropriate to be half-hidden, and most importantly, Yang Xiangzi and the others have always had a good relationship with him (he thinks so).

Thinking of this, Li Guoping brought a few antiques with him, and then he came out of nowhere.

Yang Xiangzi was catching that black cat named sister all over the place this morning. He was so irritating that he pulled a cushion that he had just made for his master into a mess, and even destroyed plants in the botanical garden, causing trouble everywhere.The cat had eaten the elixir, and its spirit orifice had been opened, like a four or five-year-old child, it came out every day to cause trouble, and when it did, it would hide, it was not easy to catch.In addition, there was a harbor criminal, Shi Yang, who helped to cover up the trouble, Yang Xiangzi was so angry that his seven orifices were full of smoke.

"Brother, my sister doesn't eat fish, so it's useless for you to seduce her. Besides, she can't understand Chinese, and she's a foreign cat operator." Shi Yang said while filling holes in the garden with a shovel.

"You just get used to it!" Yang Xiangzi became impatient.

"Master is used to it, why don't you dare to say it? I think you are used to it." Shi Yang complained mutteringly.

A roar came from the second floor of the house: "You bastard, I beat back darts twice, you robbed me twice, I have a grudge against you? The second master, you are dead, tell you to watch the darts, you watch people! go to hell……"

Shi Yang sneered: "Did you take him as Jie dart?"

Yang Xiangzi stretched out his hand and scratched his chin in embarrassment: "Just played casually."

"Hey, you bullying master and ancestor..."

Yang Xiangzi raised the hairtail to catch it, but suddenly stopped, Shi Yang stopped nagging, stood up, and came to the door with Yang Xiangzi.

Seeing Yang Xiangzi and the others coming out, Li Guoping immediately laughed affectionately: "Oh, your place is better, with beautiful mountains and rivers. I don't want to leave here after I come here."

Yang Xiangzi smiled, looked at the dark clouds all over the sky, and then looked at Li Guoping with sarcasm, Li Guoping blushed and continued to laugh.Yang Xiangzi turned around to let the door open, quietly threw the half hairtail aside, the younger sister jumped out from nowhere, caught the hairtail and ran away again, Yang Xiangzi turned his face and stared, Shi Yang looked up at the sky.

"Director Li, you are a busy person. When I saw you, I felt that nothing good happened. Our family is poor. Do you always want a big medicine, or do you want me to unblock the sewer?" Yang Xiangzi gossiped and let him go to the living room.

"Look at what you said, they are all jobs, regardless of the type of work. In the early years, I took a group of outside disciples to search for blood mulberry in Burma. I searched for five years. Hey! Five years, the most important thing in life. When it's good, it's all thrown into the mountains..."

Li Guoping talked good things in a foggy manner for a while, seeing that Yang Xiangzi was a little unhappy today, he brought the topic to the right place: "Hey, I can't help myself, you probably have heard about these things that happened these days, right? "

Yang Xiangzi nodded: "Well, I heard that, haven't you found anyone yet? Those people... are a bit out of character for doing things like this."

"It's just that the whole cultivation world has been thrown into chaos by them, ahem... no, it's in turmoil! Actually, I really had no other choice, so I asked to come to the noble family."

"Hey, you better stop talking. Hong Taishan is just a poor family, and our family is here. What do you think you want? Move away!" Yang Xiangzi pointed to his botanical garden, which was quite generous.

Li Guoping waved his hand: "It's not what you think, but I just want to borrow a place."

"Borrow a place?" Yang Xiangzi didn't understand.

Li Guoping explained the reasons in detail, then patted the armrest of the red sandalwood chair he was sitting on and sighed: "Not many people, just the second master of his family, with two sons, daughter-in-law, grandson and so on. It’s all just for people. Isn’t the forest over there always empty? Don’t worry, we arrange people to build a house and don’t bother you for too long. Okay, are the monks in this world one family? You guys are going through this difficult time together, aren’t you?”

Yang Xiangzi lowered his head and thought for a moment before laughing: "Second master? You are in the old society. Those people always look down on miscellaneous cultivators. We Hong Taishan is not famous, and if they come, they will not be bullied to death."

"No, absolutely not. I know the Yuan family well. The family is very easy to get along with. They have cooperated with local governments a lot over the years. It's not that kind of powerful family. Besides, you live yours, they live Theirs, no one can hinder anyone. I thought, those people have been tossing about for a few years, and waiting for the matter to happen, at most three or five years, is a momentary matter for you! Mr. Yang, I am really serious There is no way, they are like ancient people, you said I will put them in the city..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Yang Xiangzi thought of something and laughed. After Le Wan raised his head and smiled at him, he said, "I don't make decisions about my family. Wait a minute. I'll discuss it with them."

Li Guoping nodded: "I need to discuss it, it's okay, just go, I'll wait here."

Xue Run took off the headset, turned off the computer, took a sip of the teacup Yang Xiangzi gave him, thought for a while, then nodded: "Those people, we'd better not answer them, but we can, because of Li Guoping's stickiness Well, it's really annoying. In this way, the land in the north is far away from here, half a hill away. You tell them to go there. You go and tell him that if something happens, we don't care about anything here. .”

Yang Xiangzi nodded, and asked a little worriedly: "Master has been restless these days, is something wrong with the apprentices? It's okay, just say, if you don't like that cat, I'll transport it back to England for you."

Xue Run smiled: "It's nothing to you, it's all old things, I'm confused, I'll take care of it for a few days, you go! Besides, you hate that cat, right?"

"Yes."

Yang Xiangzi went back and said that Li Guoping was overjoyed, and he complained for a while, then left in a hurry.The next day, the army's construction team quietly went up the mountain, and after surveying the site, it was easy to start construction. In a few days, just seven or eight days, two buildings with three floors and two quaint courtyards were completed.

Shi Yang sighed: "If it is at this speed, why worry about the failure of the four modernizations? They are all used to it."

Li Guoping took advantage of two of his subordinates to enter the mountain, and went here to beg for water, complaining while drinking.

"Look at the fact that they were frightened, they didn't even dare to take the spirit weapon, so I changed my job to be a driver."

In the yard, all three members of the family were there, but Li Guoping only talked to Yang Xiangzi. He always believed that Yang Xiangzi was the master of the family.

Yang Xiangzi didn't explain his family's social status, he just looked at the new building to the north and said, "Aren't those two people using spiritual power inside, afraid of causing trouble?"

"The spiritual energy of the refining tool is fine, but I'm afraid that a large number of Danxiu will be together. It's strange, it doesn't matter whether you live in the sea or in the mountains, as long as it is Danxiu's family, there are more people, and you will be able to turn it over." come out……"

"Then you still come to my house to buy pills?"

"...Your aura is fine, I can't harm you."

"Li Guoping, don't fight haha, this is the last time, do you know?"

"That's that, that helped a lot, hey!"

Xue Run held the teacup and tapped the saucer lightly. Last night, he dreamed that Yi Dan was sitting alone in the place where he used to sit.Four seasons passed by quickly, he didn't move, he didn't even bother to disturb the little bird that made a nest on the top of his head.Xue Run wanted to knock off the dirt on his body, but his arms passed through his body.

At the end of March, the family quietly moved in in two Mercedes-Benz RVs late one night.

On the day of moving, a middle-aged man in a suit came to the door with a post wrapped in red silk, claiming to be the housekeeper of Yuan's residence.This person's words and deeds are quite old-fashioned. When he came home, he only knocked on the door lightly, and then stood up after knocking, holding the invitation card with both hands and waiting quietly.

Yang Xiangzi opened the door and looked at the old man, who was also looking at him.I thought he was exploring the realm here, but unfortunately, Yang Xiangzi could see the old man's cultivation in the late stage of foundation establishment, but the other party looked blank, surprised at Yang Xiangzi's vulgar body, and thought he had sent it to the wrong place.

Yang Xiangzi coughed, the old man first smiled very politely, pinched an ancient spell, and then saluted slightly respectfully: "Hello, sir, I am very polite here."

Ah, Yang Xiangzi was stunned, what should I do?bow?Bowing?The master didn't teach Fajue or something.

"Polite, polite, what's the matter, sir?" He said haha, and invited this one in.

The old man handed over the post with both hands: "The owner is Yuan Biao from Nanyue Green Jade Altar, and the villain Yuan Bing. The owner sent the villain to send the post today. The owner said: There are many disturbances during this evacuation. Although the monks in the world are one family, they are always disturbing. It’s time for the gentlemen to go to Qingxiu, so I’m here to invite the whole family to come over and show some gratitude... This is a post from my master.”

Embarrassed, Yang Xiangzi moved aside: "The old man goes into the house and talks."

"I won't go in. I just moved here, and I'm busy with chores over there." Yuan Bing saluted respectfully again.It caused Yang Xiangzi to be bitten by ants all over his body, and he really didn't know what to do, so he just watched the antique human figure leave in a daze, and clicked his mouth: "We are science students."

That evening, Xue Run was going to download a dungeon. Shi Yang didn't like to go to the place where the living people stayed, so Yang Xiangzi had to carry a basket of fruits from the secret realm, and walked to the door awkwardly in a formal suit. He walked out of the house, one step at a time. After walking around for a while, he walked to the small building in the north. Seeing this, he wanted to turn around and go home.

At the entrance of the courtyard of this new building, there was a long bench, and on the bench were two or three doormen who had changed into modern sportswear.When those people saw Yang Xiangzi coming up, they made another pinch trick, and bowed deeply: "But is Uncle Yang over there?"

"Uncle Yang?" Yang Xiangzi was so entangled in his heart that he only pulled his intestines. He opened his mouth dully. Someone came up to take the basket and let him in with a smile. "It's not too late.

Yang Xiangzi was led to the first building, and as soon as he climbed the steps, he saw an ancient gossip mirror hanging on the main entrance of the house.It used to be a good modern building, but now the windows and door rails have all been replaced with carved bricks, which looks a bit bland.He was looking at it, when a boy with a bun came out of the room, and he was doing another trick, making deep bows, and there were a lot of them!

Yang Xiangzi was let into the room, and as soon as he entered the room, people from both sides of the room stood up, and a middle-aged couple who had been sitting in the main seat in the middle of the room greeted them. , the man has a mole the size of a mung bean on his forehead, and the woman looks to be in her thirties at the most.Although she was wearing modern clothes, she behaved quite elegantly, like the standard model of an ancient lady. Yang Xiangzi smiled wryly, no matter how awkward she looked.

The middle-aged man came up with a smile and gave another pinch, nodded slightly, and the woman in the suit beside him was blessed.

"Yuan Bing came back and said, Uncle Yang over there is a good-looking talent. When I saw him today, he really is like this. Come and see, look at this handsome appearance. Everyone said that Yin Liu'er on the rooftop is handsome. See you today." Brother, we will have something new to say in the future, and we should be ashamed of those ignorant." The woman laughed, in ancient times, she might have been a quick-talking person, but in the unscrupulous modern day, Yang Xiangzi I was silent and wept tears, and my ears were filled with the sound of chanting sutras.

Yang Xiangzi didn't dare to stay any longer, he would die if he stayed any longer... He smiled awkwardly, and pointed back to the house: "Well, there's still something to do at home, that... I'll go back first... that..."

His hand was grabbed by the middle-aged man: "What should I do, but I don't know how to offend Brother Shi, why did I just leave when I came here?"

Yang Xiangzi smiled helplessly: "It's nothing, actually, it's... I'm a science student, do you understand science students? I haven't studied ancient Chinese, so I don't understand what you said."

The man laughed loudly, and the huge black mole on his forehead was shaking up and down rapidly: "What was I doing at the time, okay, let's just talk plainly."

What is the vernacular...

This middle-aged man is called Yuan Pingbo, the eldest son of the second master, and his family calls him Uncle Yuan.His wife's name is Su, and there are two other concubines sitting on the two sides, namely Wang and Yan.Those of them were born in sects, grew up in aristocratic families, and since they fell to the ground, except for cultivation, they live in a closed core of cultivation. Although the family also accepts disciples and disciples from the world, those who come to the house from outside have to follow the tradition, so they behave like a Old Antique was normal, they didn't think anything was wrong, but Yang Xiangzi felt extremely uncomfortable.

After this person's introduction, Yang Xiangzi was completely confused. Is this still the 21st century?Is this still the age of technology?

Yang Xiangzi was foolishly taken to sit next to the main seat, accompanied by Yuan Pingbo and his wife and the couple of concubines.At this moment, it was already evening, and Yuan Bing came into the house with a few Xiaodao again. They all held white candles as thick as a child's arm.Fifteen or sixteen candles were lit, and the room was suddenly brightly lit.

By the way, they were still burning incense, Yang Xiangzi felt that only two young monks were sent out to beat the wooden fish to set off the atmosphere.

"On the first day, everything was in a hurry. Brother Nong is an old wooden block with a serious heart. There are no Confucius holes on it, so he won't be flexible. If there is something rude, brother, don't blame Suoka." Su's tone of voice is soft and soft, full of the charm of jade beads, but the tinkling of the bells also has the soft voice of an ancient girl from Jiangnan, which sounds quite pleasant.

Yang Xiangzi stared at the four dishes and eight bowls in front of him in embarrassment. There were twelve pieces of tableware in a row. Who the hell said that foreigners are particular about eating, so how do we use these three sets of chopsticks?Just now, the servants brought the food in, and when they entered the house, they lined up, separated into two teams, came to the left and right sides of the table, opened the cover, served the dishes, and put the vegetables. , there was no sound at all, Yang Xiangzi felt deeply ashamed for the behavior of the savages at home, chattering, nagging, and fighting.

"Brother, for this glass of wine, I thank you on behalf of your elder brother. Now that the sect is in great trouble, those villains don't know what's wrong, so they just stare at the disaster in the Dan sect." Grabbing a piece of silk handkerchief to wipe away tears, holding the glass again, she continued with tears in her smile, "If it hadn't been for my younger brother's family to take me in, no one in this family would know where to settle." Then he turned the wine glass upside down, brightened the bottom of the glass, and smiled charmingly.

Yang Xiangzi picked up the wine glass with both hands and drank it quickly, not knowing what to call him.

Seeing Yang Xiangzi's embarrassment, Yuan Pingbo continued the conversation: "Call the second sister-in-law, your ancestors in Hongtaishan also had contacts with my family. Speaking of which, I have a grandparent who married into Hongtaishan. Speaking of which, we are cousin."

Hey!Why?Yang Xiangzi stared intently at the old cousin, when did it happen?Where is that cousin?

"Hehe, what do you think my brother is looking at me?" Su Shi smiled coquettishly again.

"Haha, brother, your old sister-in-law is a neat person, and she doesn't have so many twists and turns. From now on, you can sit at home when you have time, and you are not an outsider. Come on, this second cup, I will thank you on behalf of the younger generation at home." My father is a stubborn person. He has never begged anyone in his life, and he doesn't know the fancy things in the secular world. Seeing that other people's families have settled down, and disasters in Danmen are happening one after another, we don't care, but Your nephew and niece can't be arrested and made slaves. Hey, fortunately, Hong Taishan is benevolent and righteous, and took our family in. Come, I respect you!"

is it so serious?That guy Li Guoping didn't say anything?Yang Xiangzi drank the second cup in a daze, looked at the candles over there and asked Yuan Pingbo: "Well, brother...why don't you light the lights at home?"

"what?"

Yang Xiangzi pointed to the modern crystal chandelier above his head worth at least tens of thousands of yuan: "Why don't you light it?"

Yuan Pingbo and the Su family looked at each other, confused.The rest of the room didn't know what Yang Xiangzi was talking about.These people were quietly transported to the stuffy tank truck the day before yesterday, and were hurriedly transported out from the inner core. During this journey, the whole family, who did not eat or drink, came to this mountain in meditation. don't know.

The Yuan family is different from other families. The patriarch of this family is quite controlling. He calls the outside a dirty and vulgar place, and doesn't allow the younger generation of the family to go out.In addition, since ancient times, the Danmen have not had much contact with the outside world, one is to keep the secrets of the Dan Fang, and second, the Danmen has always been weak in combat skills, so avoiding the world is the basic basis.

Yang Xiangzi now believes that there are definitely not a few ancient repair families like Yuan Pingbo at the core.

Yang Xiangzi stood up and looked around. Li Guoping was really willing to bleed. The whole house has been fully automated. The only pity is that the family doesn't know how to use it and only uses the chandeliers as decorations.

"It's here." Yang Xiangzi bent down happily, found the universal remote control from the second floor of the five-drawer cabinet next to the door, and pressed it lightly on the chandelier in the room.

Immediately, the room lit up like daylight, and Yang Xiangzi murmured to himself, "Ah, welcome to Earth."

An awkward chicken-and-duck dinner, this moment was more fun. Yang Xiangzi took Yuan Pingbo's family and turned on the lights all the way, introducing the usage of TV, refrigerator, air conditioner and other electrical appliances. Only later did he know that it was not that there was no one in this house. Know how to use these things, but those new disciples think that the higher-ups don't like it, so they don't dare to talk about it.

After Yang Xiangzi left, Yuan Pingbo took the basket of fruit to the backyard, where his father Qingxiu lived.

Now that there is a catastrophe in the alchemy sect, Master Yuan Ercheng, Daoist Le Cheng, does not dare to practice kung fu. He can only adhere to the ancient method. The source of rain is grounded, and the source of cloud is weathered. .

"Father." Yuan Pingbo put down the fruit, looked at his father sitting cross-legged by the window, feeling sore in his stomach.My father was upright all his life and couldn't turn a corner. This time, the Dan family was in a catastrophe, and everyone went their separate ways. They have been self-enclosed for hundreds of years and have not come out of the mountain. Now they can't even find a place of refuge.Yuan Pingbo knew that his father was unhappy, so after sitting down, he only talked about some interesting things about the arrival of the neighbors.

"Those people are used to being wild and their behavior is vulgar. Now they don't talk about etiquette. Just now, Yuan Bing served tea on behalf of Yuan Bing, and he drank all the tea he rinsed his mouth with." Seeing that his father was still silent, he stood up and went to the door to find From the five-drawer cabinet, I took out the universal remote control, and turned on the lights in the house: "Father, come and see this, it's very interesting, just click on this mechanism. You don't need to use spells, point there, light it there, and the window can be closed... "

He was talking lively when his father opened his eyes: "Shut up."

Yuan Pingbo hurriedly shut up, and lowered his hands in embarrassment.

Master Lecheng looked at his son and sighed slightly: "There are a lot of temptations in the world of flowers, you go and tell them to stay at home and don't go there, so as not to be tempted. In the future, your mind will be full of vines, and then you can cut it off." It's difficult. You only have one son and one daughter, so be careful, don't... grow crooked."

Yuan Pingbo turned off the light with the remote control, nodded slightly: "Yes! Father."

"Although the neighbor is a small sect, he dared to lend a helping hand when he was in crisis. You are laughing at him like this. The books you read and the etiquette you learned are all in the belly of a dog?"

"It's the child's fault."

"...Tomorrow, go pick up some old prescriptions. If they have them, don't mention them. If they don't, just give them to them. Remember, don't bring out your usual temperament, thinking that what you gave away is not good for others. It is not too much to sacrifice the lives of the whole family to take us in, even if you give them all."

Yuan Pingbo was unwilling: "Father, it's just a small alchemy sect. Just give some at will, and give them all. Isn't it a little bit over?"

"Hmph! Now take your prescription and go around to worship, to see who dares to take it in and who dares to take in your whole family." Lecheng Daoist said sarcastically, slowly closed his eyes, and refused to say another word.
