Chapter 83 The Mystery of the Spring Flower Brush (8000)
Everyone turned their attention to Wuhua, waiting for Wuhua to say something.
Wuhua organized her words, and after a while, she spoke slowly.
"My master once had a relationship with her. The sea is boundless, and there is nothing and no image. It summarizes this person's life. Among the generation of amazing talents at that time, he is also the top person, jade face viewer, female viewer. "
After saying this, the scene fell into silence.
This sentence is like a stone thrown into the sea, causing a wave.
Xu Bai frowned, remembering what Yang Chang said before, and connected it.
Yang Chang said that the female viewer at that time was on the verge of losing control, but she didn't want to hurt people's lives, so she almost disappeared.
It appears inexplicably now, and has become so crazy again. Could it be the reason for the Infinite Dao Sutra?
After thinking about it, Xu Bai could only come to this conclusion.
As for the reason for its appearance, it may be related to this tree.
After all, the giant trees fused together have a lot of weirdness in themselves, and these weirdnesses were all practicing the Infinite Taoism before their lives.
After being fused together, the female viewer may be attracted.
"Shall we go?" Liu Xu asked with fear in his eyes.
The female mistress back then was the arrogance of that era. To put it bluntly, Liu Xu was worried that the mad mistress would turn back suddenly, and none of them would be able to stop her.
After all, if the Tianjiao in that era survived without incident until now and did not lose what he had learned, unless the older generation, such as the old people of Qingyun Academy, took action, they would not be able to check and balance at all.
Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "I think it's feasible."
This female viewer is not hostile now, but that doesn't mean she won't be in the future.
Besides, the world is impermanent, and unpredictable things may happen in the next second.
What are you doing here?
Trust your intuition, no accidents?
Intuition is sometimes deceiving.
Of course Xu Bai wanted to go, even far away.
"It's a pity." He said silently.
This sentence was heard by everyone, and they were shocked.
"What else do you want to happen..." The old postmaster was shocked.
Now he also understands that the backbone of the other two is actually the man in front of him carrying a ghost knife.
One is a disciple of the King Kong Temple, and the other is a scholar of the academy.
This is so unbelievable, the old postmaster felt that he was shocked again.
"Ah... what a pity." Xu Bai still sighed.
It is indeed a pity that the clues were not found, and there was no progress bar to harvest.
He was thinking, when this matter is over, he should seize the time to finish the Chunhua pen first, and then go to collect new progress bars.
Laziness can't get started. If you want to survive in this world, you still have to work hard.
Thinking about this, Xu Bai was about to look away and return to Sheng County.
But the next moment, he stopped again, slightly taken aback.
When he retracted his gaze just now, he just subconsciously glanced at the tree that broke from it. He didn't expect to find something abnormal just by this one glance.
The broken tree root, there is a golden progress bar floating on the handprint of the female viewer just now, which is very eye-catching.
I didn't notice anything just now, but now it appears inexplicably.
Xu Bai guessed whether this might be related to the palm of the female temple master just now.
Thinking about it this way, it becomes more and more possible.
This was a surprise, and the biggest surprise.
Nothing beats a progress bar.
"This is a lot of money, and you need a liver." Xu Bai thought to himself.
He was still worried just now, isn't this coming to his door now?
There is no place to find when you break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
And just looking at the reason why this progress bar appears, I feel that things are not that simple. The things inside are probably very good.
After all, this is left by the female viewer.
Who is the female viewer?
Self-created immeasurable Taoism, integrating thousands of skills.
One word, fierce.
Although he still failed in the end, and even became crazy, but that talent and boldness, no matter where you put it, it is the best.
This progress bar is absolutely great!
Thinking of this, Xu Bai started to feel greedy again.
"Oh, occupational disease, there is really nothing to do about it." Xu Bai rubbed his hands and said excitedly.
"Xu Bai, what are you thinking? Hurry up and leave." Seeing that Xu Bai was in a daze, Liu Xu reminded him aloud.
Xu Bai came back to his senses and said, "Then let's go back to Sheng County first."
I was too absorbed in thinking about things just now, so I didn't notice the situation here.
There is no way to do this, the progress bar is so delicious.
But Xu Bai knew that it was unreasonable to say that he wanted to stay here at this time, so let's go back to Sheng County first.
He still has a Chunhua pen and no liver.
Go back and rest for a while before making other plans.
Several people didn't stay any longer. Before leaving, Xu Bai asked the old postmaster what to do with the tree in the future?
The old postmaster looked at the broken tree and fell into deep thought. It took a long time before he gave Xu Bai an answer.
"Let's put it here first, and wait for the people from the court to come down and read it before making other plans."
The old postmaster will be disarmed and returned to the field in a few months. Now that this kind of incident happened, he can't get rid of it. As for the giant tree, he must wait for the people from the court to come down to talk about it.
At this time, the sky was still pitch black, and the three of them didn't stay here overnight, and took advantage of the darkness to rush towards Sheng County.
…
After returning to Sheng County, Xu Bai originally planned to return to the Escort Bureau first, but Liu Xu and Wu Hua seemed to have something to do, so they didn't let him go back, but rushed back to Liu Mansion together.
After returning, Liu Xu did not go to her own room, but followed him into the room where she lived before.
As soon as I entered the room, the atmosphere became a little strange
Here, Xu Bai had just sat down, and before his **** was hot, he heard Liu Xu speak.
"This promotion to the county is over, and I will go back to the academy in a while, my vacation has already passed, it's time to go back." Liu Xu leaned against the door frame, arms crossed.
"The little monk is leaving too." Wuhua clasped her hands together.
The two of them, one is a scholar of Qingyun Academy, and the other is a supervisor and a disciple of King Kong Temple. They stay here to complete the task.
Liu Xu doesn't have much vacation time, nor can she stay for long.
Xu Bai rubbed his chin and said, "You asked me and you to go back to Liu's mansion just to talk about this?"
Liu Xu shook her head, and exchanged a glance with Wu Hua.
The two stared at each other, but neither of them spoke.
Actually, the three of them have experienced life and death after experiencing the incident of Jishengjiao.
Judging from Wu Hua's guess about Xu Bai, Xu Bai is not a person who is content with the status quo. On the contrary, if he is given a little more time, he will surely become a blockbuster.
"Just tell me what you have, why are you so secretive?" Seeing the appearance of the three of them, Xu Bai frowned.
"Ah." Wuhua sighed, opened her clasped hands, and said, "Let's talk about it as a little monk, benefactor, do you have any plans for the future?"
"I don't have any plans right now. By the way, if you are not in a hurry, Liu Xu, don't go back for a few days. I will return you after I study the Spring Flower Brush." Xu Bai said ambiguously.
Liu Xu shook her head, saying that it would take a few days before she left, and the spring flower brush hadn't been returned yet, so it didn't matter for the time being.
"It's like this. A long time ago, I had an exchange with Benefactor Liu about your future affairs, Benefactor Xu." Wu Hua said slowly.
Xu Bai stroked his chin, but didn't interrupt, motioning for him to continue.
He already knew that there must be something wrong with sending him back to the Liu Mansion for no reason, and now Wu Hua is making it clear.
Ask him what he wants to do in the future, and said that they had communicated before.
Could it be that you want to introduce him to some work?
Facts have proved that Xu Bai's guess is not wrong.
"Sponsor, what do you think of Jian Tiansi?" Wu Hua asked tentatively.
In the middle of speaking, Xu Bai raised his hand to interrupt.
"Stop, don't bring up this matter again, I'm not interested in Jian Tiansi at all." Xu Bai said decisively, blocking everything Wu Hua wanted to say next.
Are you kidding me?
Wu Hua meant that he wanted him to supervise Tiansi.
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
He will not go to Jiantiansi.
The reason is very simple, just two words.
-Danger.
The work of supervising Tiansi may be an opportunity for ordinary Jianghu people to get promoted and make a fortune, but there is a deep truth in it.
Not to mention other things for the time being, any officialdom and the like can be ignored, except for danger, which cannot be ignored.
Just because of the danger factor, Xu Bai dismissed this idea.
In these days, safety is the most important thing.
Maybe there is no absolute security, but there is relative security.
Soon, he switched to another topic.
"Actually, it's not that I have nowhere to go." Xu Bai said.
Originally, when Wu Hua heard Xu Bai's answer, he felt that there was no hope. Now that he heard Xu Bai's turning point, he immediately regained his energy.
Even the catkin next to him pricked up his ears, intending to hear what Xu Bai had planned.
Actually, Liu Xu also had a suggestion about letting Xu Bai join the supervisor.
Both of them have no evil intentions, they just think that Xu Bai should not be in a small county town, but should have a bigger stage.
Diving will trap the dragon.
After going through several incidents, they have already figured out that Xu Bai is definitely not a simple person, and he will definitely ascend to heaven in the future.
If he was really promoted to the county, wouldn't that be Qu Cai?
Only in the real big world can Xu Bai's potential be brought into full play and allow him to truly show his strength.
But unfortunately, the result they got was the opposite.
Or it’s not the opposite, Xu Bai’s answer did not exceed their expectations. After all, they also know that Xu Bai sometimes does things beyond ordinary people.
But now, hearing Xu Bai himself say that he has other plans, they are also very curious about what Xu Bai's plan is.
"I think that Yinyi is pretty good." Xu Bai said slowly.
Saying this sentence, both Wuhua and Liuxu were taken aback.
They looked at each other, unable to believe their ears.
Yin station?
Did they hear correctly?
Did you really say the word Yinyi just now?
"Benefactor, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." Wu Hua showed difficulty.
Liu Xu glared at Wu Hua: "Is there anything that should be said or should not be said? Everyone has experienced life and death. Many things have to be explained clearly. If you don't say it, I will say it."
Wuhua sighed and remained silent.
"Xu Bai, in Jianghu, there is a saying that has been circulated all the time, it is about Yinyi." Liu Xu changed the subject and said: "Once you enter Yinyi, it is as deep as the sea, and you can see the head at a glance."
After saying this, she was still secretly looking at Xu Bai's expression, but Xu Bai's expression did not change at all.
Yinyi is also an official ordered by the court, this is beyond doubt.
But it is also the most difficult official position to transfer.
There are many people who have worked in Yinyi for a lifetime without any movement.
Until the end when he was disarmed and returned to the field, he was also a small postmaster.
Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, people in the Jianghu are not willing to do this business. After all, they are already at a disadvantage in terms of official positions.
Xu Bai smiled and said: "So I want to ask you, if you really go to Yinyi, will you have to stay there for the rest of your life, and you can't leave every day?"
Liu Xu shook her head: "That's not true. There should be two postmasters, who are divided into chief and deputy. The deputy is arranged by the principal and takes turns to be on duty, but the promotion to the county is an accident."
Wu Hua continued: "If there are no two, all the salary will be received by the post chief alone. Shengxian County is a small and remote place. It is estimated that the old post chief wants to get more salary, after all, he will soon be dismissed and return to the farm. "
"Two people take turns on duty..." Xu Bai's eyes lit up instantly when he heard these words.
Very good, there is room for manipulation.
Actually, he has been thinking about his future plans.
Yinyi opened a new path for him.
Don't forget, the people staying in Yinyi are all from the Jianghu.
If the postman conducts transactions inside, he must bring the goods. If he can get the progress bar from the goods, he will make a steady profit.
Didn’t find it last time, but it doesn’t mean it won’t happen next time.
The most important thing is that not only the postmen, but also the people from the rivers and lakes, and even the Tiansi.
People who come and go will also bring things, and come and go, isn't this a profit?
And I heard just now that as long as there are two people, they can be on duty in shifts, and it won't delay him from looking for progress bars elsewhere.
Most importantly, relatively safe.
As for finding someone, it's actually very simple.
These days, the most indispensable thing is people.
Choice does not lie in loftiness, but in suitability.
Go to Jiantiansi, it is not suitable for the progress bar, but Yinyi is more suitable.
"Are you really going to Yinyi?" Liu Xu's eyes widened, full of surprise.
"How can I become a postmaster?" Xu Bai asked.
"The postmaster in Sheng County will be dismissed and returned to the field in a month, and then I can ask the teacher to recommend him." Liu Xu thought for a while and said.
"Young monk can also help." Wu Hua followed up.
"Then thank you both." Xu Bai became humble.
"You should be more arrogant, I'm not used to your appearance." Liu Xu hurriedly waved her hand.
Wuhua also has an expression of seeing a ghost.
modesty?
The two of them had never seen Xu Bai's humble appearance.
"That's nothing, I'll go first." Xu Bai stood up, ready to leave.
It was already very late, he had to go back and take a rest, and then find time as soon as possible to finish the Chunhua pen.
Liu Xu and Wu Hua didn't stay much, watching Xu Bai leave.
…
After Xu Bai left, the room fell into silence.
"Benefactor, why don't you persuade me?" Wu Hua asked.
"Do you think I don't want to persuade him? But will it work?" Liu Xu said speechlessly.
Wuhua thought about it, and it seems that this is really the case.
With Xu Bai's temper, this matter really cannot be persuaded.
"Anyway, I believe he has his own plans." Liu Xu walked to the door and said, "It is absolutely impossible for him to be a flash in the pan."
Wuhua thought about it carefully, and agreed with Liu Xu's point of view.
"Let's go." Liu Xu didn't look back, turned and left.
In a blink of an eye, catkins disappeared into the darkness.
After the catkins left, Wu Hua took out the wooden fish and tapped it lightly.
The sound of the wooden fish this time is very chaotic, not because of Xu Bai, but because of himself.
During this mission, his heart was disturbed.
The turmoil in the world of mortals became more and more serious, as Yang Chang said at that time, his heart was completely in turmoil.
"After I go back, I need to ask the master, otherwise my Buddha's heart will completely collapse." Wu Hua secretly thought.
On the other side, Liu Xu returned to the room and locked the door.
She took out a book from the bookcase, with the words "The Way of Righteousness" written on it.
Flipping it back and forth countless times, Liu Xu became restless, and the speed of flipping became more and more frequent.
But the more frequent it was, the more irritable she became. She simply put down the book, got up and opened the window.
Outside the window, the night is like ink.
Liu Xu thought about what Yang Chang said before, about the nine princesses, and couldn't sleep anymore.
…
The next day.
Fulong Escort.
Morning is the best time to exercise. Scattered bodyguards came in from the outside and started practicing hand styles in the yard.
Liu Er is also practicing, but he has been not stable recently.
It has been more than ten days since Xu Bai went missing, and for the past ten days, he has been in charge of the **** agency.
Not to mention, although their reputation was discredited due to the incident of betting on the darts last time, they still received a few darts here and there.
After all, there is only Fulong Escort Bureau in the entire Sheng County.
With these few escorts, the escorts are all in high spirits. During the recent period, the business is slowly recovering, and they have become more confident.
After all, everything they do is doing things for themselves, unlike before, they only have one salary.
Working for yourself and working for others are two completely different things.
Therefore, the bodyguards are working harder and harder.
But in Liu Er's heart, he was always worried about one thing, that is why Xu Bai hasn't come back yet?
To be honest, in the hearts of all bodyguards, there is still a lot of fear of Xu Bai.
But apart from fear, it is more of a joy to find a backer.
That’s right, it’s the backer. There is a really powerful backer these days, and it’s normal for them to hug their thighs.
"Brother Liu, what are you still thinking about?" One of the bodyguards saw that Liu Er was in a daze, and asked subconsciously.
Liu Er came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I just don't know why, Guard Master Xu hasn't come back yet."
After listening to Liu Er's words, the **** scratched his head vigorously, showing a puzzled look.
"Brother Liu, hasn't Bodyguard Master Xu returned yet? I was the first to come this morning, and then I saw Bodyguard walking around in the yard, and I went up to say hello."
Liu Er was slightly taken aback when he heard this.
What?
came back?
When did you come back?
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I thought you knew, and it doesn't matter. I went up and asked. If the bodyguard master needs anything, I will help." The bodyguard master showed a very innocent look.
Liu Er sneered, he had already seen what name this guy was playing, and he could see it very clearly.
These days, you have to hug your thighs early, if you are late, you can only be at the end. This guy met the bodyguard master in the morning, but he didn't tell him that there must be a small Jiujiu in it.
"hehe."
Liu Er saw it through, but he didn't say anything. He turned his head and walked towards the backyard. When he was approaching the backyard, he stopped again and yelled at the backyard.
"Boss, is there anything you need to do?"
After Liu Er finished speaking, the bodyguards who were exercising also stopped, and immediately understood that the bodyguard master had returned.
They showed joyful expressions on their faces, but they didn't let go of the guys in their hands, and seized the time to continue exercising.
Our bodyguard masters don’t like lazy people, so we need to be more diligent.
The backyard was quiet, and just when Liu Er thought there would be no more sound, Xu Bai's voice came out.
"Come in, I just need to find you."
It was such a simple sentence, but Liu Er was in a dilemma. He looked at the boundary between the backyard and the front yard, with a tangled expression on his face.
As we all know, there is a locust tree in the backyard, and that locust tree is so strange that it will bring unimaginable situations to people.
The bodyguards were afraid to go in, but now the bodyguard let him in. At this time, Liu Er felt a little scared.
He tried his best to control his inner thoughts, finally gritted his teeth, and walked in.
Enter! Must enter!
The bodyguard master has spoken, if he doesn't go in, it will cause displeasure in his heart.
Besides, what the bodyguard did just now has aroused Liu Er's vigilance. These days, people are rushing to hug their thighs. If Liu Er doesn't show some extraordinary strength, won't he be eliminated?
Fight!
Since the bodyguard master said it, let's go in and have a look.
As Liu Er raised his foot and stepped into the backyard, he clenched his teeth and closed his eyes, as if he would be under a violent storm next.
But after waiting for a while, the situation he imagined did not happen. He looked around and found that his body was unharmed.
"fine!"
Liu Er was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to forget that Xu Bai asked him to go in, so he forcibly suppressed his joy and walked towards Xu Bai's room.
After walking to the door, Liu Er raised his hand, knocked lightly on the door, and shouted in a slightly lower voice.
"Boss, is there something wrong?"
"Come in and we'll talk."
In the room, Xu Bai's voice came again.
Liu Er didn't hesitate anymore, he pushed the door carefully and entered. After walking in, he turned around and closed the door, and only then did he look at the situation in the room.
The terrifying bodyguard master is sitting on a stool at the moment, with his hands on the table, drinking tea while playing with a simple-looking brush.
"Boss." Liu Er didn't know how to speak. After shouting, he stood in place with his head held high and his eyes lowered.
The bodyguard master will tell him what he needs to do, don't ask if he doesn't need it, and don't mix too much with some things.
Asking too many questions can lead to accidents.
Liu Er is very aware of this point, and dare not go beyond it.
Xu Bai put down the teacup in his hand, looked away from Chunhuabi, and looked at Liu Er with interest.
Liu looked at his nose and heart with two eyes, and remained silent.
"I remember that you are all afraid of entering this backyard. You are very courageous, why do you dare to enter?" Xu Bai said lightly.
Liu Er answered quickly: "Because I know that the **** has something to ask me for, as long as I am needed, I will do my best without any hesitation."
This sentence was said loudly and firmly, but it was all flattery.
It even has a taste of sycophancy.
The so-called highest level of flattering is flattering, so that the person being flattered feels comfortable without embarrassment.
Liu Er believes that he can do it.
"You dare to come in, you really have the guts. That's why I called you alone. Congratulations, you passed my test." Xu Bai put on a new teacup, poured a cup, and asked Liu Er to sit beside him.
Liu Er hurried over, picked up the teacup carefully, and took a sip.
Throughout the whole process, he didn't even dare to make big moves.
"I know you. Your parents died early and you had no family. You grew up with difficulty. In the end, you secretly learned the two-handed style from the master of the martial arts school and became a bodyguard master." Xu Bai said slowly: "By the way, these news , all this morning, the first person who met me told me."
The so-called first encounter is naturally the bodyguard who first talked to Liu Er.
Liu Er gritted his teeth and sighed secretly, that guy had too many schemes and schemes.
But it doesn't matter.
These things are not secrets, and it doesn't matter if they are known.
"It's normal for the bodyguard master to know." Liu Er said.
Xu Bai turned the teacup in his hand, and said abruptly: "Do you want to be famous? Or in other words, do you want to become a martial artist, really an official?"
This sentence came too abruptly, Liu Er didn't react for a while, and when he did, his face showed shock.
Immediately afterwards, he made an action.
"Snapped!"
Liu Er knelt down on the ground, and said in an excited tone that could not be concealed: "Boss, do you... want to train me?"
He is a very shrewd person, and he has already heard the meaning from Xu's vernacular.
"Almost." Xu Bai said: "But not now, I just remind you, whether you agree or not."
Liu Er nodded vigorously: "Promise! From now on, my life belongs to the escort, and the **** can take it anytime he wants!"
He is excited!
Everyone wants to be a martial artist, and everyone wants to become a high-end product. This is what ordinary people like them dream of.
Now there is an opportunity, and it is a huge opportunity, of course he will not refuse.
"Okay, then you go down, and I will tell you when I am mature." Xu Bai waved his hand and let Liu Er go down.
Liu Er didn't say much, and after saying goodbye quickly, he left directly.
Xu Bai stretched his waist, and then turned his attention to the Spring Flower Brush in his hand.
"I don't know how many days Liu Xu is talking about. Anyway, hurry up and finish the Chunhua pen." Xu Bai thought to himself.
Finish the progress bar of this pen as soon as possible, so that he can return it as soon as possible. He has settled one thing. After this matter is over, he can concentrate on dealing with the progress bar of the broken tree.
"Start." Xu Bai rubbed his forehead and continued to stare intently.
…
The capital.
In a luxurious room, a woman in her thirties was lying sideways on a soft couch, looking at the urgently sent secret letter in her hand.
Although the woman is nearly thirty, she has a mature charm that young girls don't have. Just lying there on her side, the lines around her waist can outline thousands of styles.
Two young maidservants stood beside them, with exquisite silver thorns on their waists.
If you look carefully, you will find that these two maids have different attitudes. They have calluses on their hands, and their eyes are restrained. They are both masters.
The woman read the secret letter carefully, then threw it on the ground in boredom, and yawned.
One of the maids stepped forward, picked it up carefully, and returned it without saying a word.
"My older brothers are really considerate. They deliver letters faster than me. It's a pity. They thought it would arouse my anger, but it didn't help at all." The woman waved her hand boredly: "Qingxue."
One of the maids came out, the silver thorns on her waist reflected light.
"Go and investigate, mainly about that Jianghu man." The woman ordered.
"Does it need to be dealt with?" the maid Qingxue asked.
"No, these days, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy. No matter how powerful he is, you can't underestimate him. If you can be a friend, then be a friend." The woman continued: "You just investigate, don't offend him." gone."
"Yes!" Qingxue said, turned around and left.
Another maid asked: "But Chunyu Pavilion..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a woman.
"How can a branch of the Chunyu Pavilion in a small remote county be compared to a genius, and he is someone that the genius disciples of King Kong Temple and Academy are willing to make friends with. Learn more in the future. You still have a long way to go."
The servant girl hurriedly bowed: "Yes, Princess Nine!"
On the soft couch, the smile on the face of the Ninth Princess grew stronger and stronger.
…
Time keeps ticking.
Days are still going on as usual. For the common people, they don't know the important things that happened a few days ago.
Because of this, they lived as usual without being affected in the slightest.
The rivers and lakes have the romance of the rivers and lakes, and the folks have the folks' firewood, rice, oil and salt. Everything goes its own way.
In the past few days, except for a trip to Yinyi, Xu Bai has been writing in the liver.
When he went to Yinyi, he specifically went to see the broken tree. He didn't expect the broken tree to still be there. According to the old postmaster, the imperial court had sent someone down to inspect it, and allocated a batch of funds. Let him rebuild.
As for the tree, the old postmaster didn’t touch it. At that time, the court official said that there was no major problem, so he checked it carefully, and let him remove it himself if he wanted to remove it.
But the old postmaster is about to disarm and return to the field, and he doesn't want to cause trouble, so he just let the broken tree stay. After all, if he finds an accident during the demolition process, he will really be at a loss .
As far as building, it's totally okay to be around.
This saved Xu Bai's work, so Xu Bai stayed in Sheng County with peace of mind these few days and continued to improve the progress bar.
Today is an important day, because the progress bar is finally full by him.
Looking at the golden progress bar in front of him, Xu Bai smiled.
Pale blue smoke appears.
