Two European and White Wilds came from the distant East, who were fierce, wild and domineering. Even the authentic monks and Taoist masters of the two Buddhist and Taoist sects such as the Tianshi Temple of Jinshui Temple could not deal with them. Fortunately, Lord Mu of Zhou led the righteous men from the rivers and lakes to subdue them. ↗
This news was known to everyone in Luoshui City within one or two days. The main reason is that a war in the inn almost demolished the entire inn. It was the most prosperous area in Luoshui City. At that time, there were at least hundreds of people gathered around to watch the fun. Some were well-informed and unique. After a few words of word-of-mouth, all the news was clearly understood and spreading so much that it became an interesting story that Luoshui City has been talked about in recent days, from the leaders of the famous gangs to the neighbors.
Some people are worried about this situation. Some people are happy. The Crow Taoist was so happy that he jumped up and down and was very excited. He couldn't sleep for several consecutive nights and was also full of energy. He told everyone that he was so great about the Shangqing Taoist Dharma of Maoshan lineage. The Shangqing magic that the Heavenly Master Daoyao cannot deal with was able to capture. He and Taoist Master Qingfeng, who appreciated the extremely Dezhou Mu, had a deep friendship. For a time, many people in Luoshui City really looked up again. They came to his remote small temple to burn incense and trade talismans and other fellow practitioners in the martial arts world.
As for the Taoist Master Qingfeng who was talking about, he was a little overwhelmed. It was not Xiao Xia’s wish to show off like this. It was not annoying for all the people in the world who came to learn Taoism with him or to learn from him all day long. It was just so ostentatious. If it attracted the attention of the Tianshi Sect and the Shadow Shirt Guard, if a bad thing would happen, a huge trouble would come.
"Dear Master Xia. I see that there are deep worries hidden in your expression. Do you have any worries? Why don't you tell me and see if I can find a solution for you."
In a slow carriage, Aguris was sitting opposite Xiao Xia. The old man Euro undoubtedly saw the sad face between Xiao Xia's eyebrows, but in the face of the care and inquiry of the old man Euro, Xiao Xia could only shake his head and smile bitterly, speechless. Since he woke up the old man Euro, before the translation of the capital came, as the only person who could understand the translation of the old man Euro, he took the initiative to become the translation of the old man Euro. This was the personal request of the governor of the state. Xiao Xia was also quite curious about the matter of the European, and after hesitation, he agreed.
This old man named Aguris is indeed a very well-educated and talkative and very knowledgeable old man. According to him, he is a high-level priest who believes in the god of light on Euro continent, and the strong Euro man Mingx is his personal guard. Although Xiao Xia is not very familiar with the gods of the Yi Cult, the kindness, wisdom, enthusiasm and calmness that he feels from this old man is the natural temperament of the devout people with faith. However, the customs of these Europeans are different from those of China. No matter how good the etiquette and education is, he likes to speak straightforwardly, which is really similar to those simple Yunzhou people or the barbaric Xidi people, which makes people feel that they are easy to get along with. Some things are not known how to tell them.
"It's just some small personal troubles. Thank you for your concern." Xiao Xia shook her head, of course she didn't say his troubles. She just said it. It's not that she has concerns about this old man Euro, but that his troubles are both complicated and important. If it's not done well, it will cause others to be implicated. "There are too many guests who have come to harass these days. I wonder if it has disturbed you?"
"Ah. Of course not. Although it was only a few days, the customs and culture of the Western continent had already made me sigh. It was really like those records in the classics, the bustling city, the humble, polite and hospitality people, the extremely wise governor and consul, and countless exquisite and unspeakable food. If it weren't for the turbulent sea roads being too far away and the violent chaotic storm blocked, I think when I pass on the news here, there would definitely be many people willing to come here."
Aguris's words and expressions were full of admiration, showing his sincerity to be convinced by the scenery of China. After the previous incident, many forces and people from Luoshui City had visited them out of simple curiosity or other thoughts. Today they had just returned from the banquet at Hushan Gate. Just as before, the old man Euro had a good impression of the luxury of the banquet and the politeness of the owner. Xiao Xia couldn't explain to the old man in detail what face and scenes were. Those gang leaders who were so friendly that they seemed to be friends of life and death at the table might have to stab them in the back after they came down. Moreover, he couldn't touch the intention of Hushan Gate to invite them this time. The majestic and ferocious sect leader still smiled like a cat today, and his words were full of politeness, but they always gave Xiao Xia a feeling that he was not here.
The humanistic style on Europe is not general, and there are various conspiracies and tricks that hide the sword in their smiles. However, judging from the old man Aguris and the guard Minks, it is probably not popular enough to be as popular as the customs of the people. The old man Aguris probably thinks this is just a simple hospitality.
As for the extremely wise governor and consul, Xiao Xia knew that Aguris was talking about Liu Junfeng, the governor of the state. He could not fully understand the specific meaning of the European official title, but he should also be a real power figure in charge of one side. Unfortunately, it was a bit inappropriate for this Qingzhou Prefecture Lord. The governor of the state was nominally the leader of the state who served as the emperor, but in fact it was not exactly the case. For example, the governor of Shuzhou was from the Tang family no matter how he changed it, and the governor of Jingzhou had some relationship with the Tianshi Sect. In general, Qingzhou was still in reorganization and development, and there were many forces in various rivers and lakes, and behind it was the shadow of major aristocratic sects. Liu Junfeng, who represented the court, was mostly a key hub for mediation and mediation. Although his influence was great, he was definitely not a person who could tell the truth.
In short, what this old man of Euro sincerely sighed about now is mostly superficial phenomena, not that he has short-sighted vision. It is just that it is difficult to understand the subtleties behind it for a while, and he can probably see it after a long time. But Xiao Xia really can't explain the complex background to him clearly in a few words.
Relatively speaking, discussing the European cultural customs and European magic with Aguris, Xiao Xia was a little happy.
"Mr. Aguris, can you tell me about that 'magic net'? I'm very interested in the wonderful magic network you mentioned last time."
"Ah, that is the greatest civilization miracle in the history of the Euro continent. It was originally just a method used by the druids to facilitate the restraint of the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind. With the opening of the Aofa Age, after the sequel to the sequel of countless sages and legendary magicians, after thousands of years, it finally became a great feat that is always with the Euro continent and comparable to miracles. Although with the destruction of the thousand-year-old empire, the Aofa Age also came to an end, the existence of the magic net has penetrated into the bone marrow of the Euro civilization, and even the power of the gods gradually needs the magic net to be conveniently displayed..."
Although there is pride in my words, Aguris' expression was a little strange when he said this. He opened the car window, knelt down and raised his hands in the air, respectfully saluted to the scorching sun in the air, then stood up and said to Xiaoxia: "Of course, the glory and greatness of my Lord Amanta are far more than power. It's just that the convenience of the magic net has made us accustomed to it for a long time. Just as people forget that they are actually breathing most of the time, I didn't realize it when I used the 'verbal knowledge' I used to it before, even if I connect with me and the right one.
Fang's consciousness relies on the divine power of my Lord Amanta, but the final release of the consciousness group was carried out through the magic net. In the year of the Flowers and Codex, the modern magic arts founded after the divine art reform initiated by Pope Almodovar, which certainly created a new era of divine arts, reducing the difficulty of obtaining divine arts for prayers and increasing the effectiveness of divine arts, but from then on, the divine arts gradually relied on the magic net. Later, the Morris sects denounced this action as the beginning of staying away from the Amanta. It is not unreasonable to blame this for the reason for the decline of the sect... "
"Overuse skills are the beginning of staying away from the truth. We have the same statement here." Xiaoxia nodded. In the past few days, he had heard from Aguris intermittently about the European continent, and the description of the magic net accounted for the vast majority of them. It seemed to be a huge formation covering the entire European continent, which belonged to the vitality, sorted out the laws of heaven and earth, and facilitated the Euro people to cast various magic.
In fact, the Shenzhou Dao Sect does not have such similar methods. For example, the Jingnan Earth Tianshi Sect built the Zhengyi Dragon and Tiger Formation built by the power of incense and belief. The Five Elements Sect’s resident often relies on the arranged formations to facilitate casting. However, the European continent, a large array that covers a whole area of heaven and earth, sounds like it can be directly connected to the soul of a human being, is far more than a thousand times better than the spirit and mystery. This surprised Xiao Xia and also had the idea of looking at the end.
However, Euro Continent is outside the sea of thousands of miles, and the surging sea beasts are appearing along the way, which is a hundred times more difficult than going to Yingzhou. I heard from the old man Aguris that in the previous dynasty a hundred years ago, Euro Continent seemed to have a little contact with China. Later, both sides fell into the turmoil of dynasty changes, and a chaotic storm arose on the ocean, which completely cut off contact. This time they were able to cross the ocean with a lot of luck. It was not easy to turn back, and I don’t know when they would end up.
"Okay, maybe that's true... The collapse of the Aoyor Empire and the wrath of the gods may be really related to the excessive use of the magic net..." Aguris sighed slightly, with a slightly lonely expression, and then looked at Xiaoxia and said, "But put the difficult philosophical discussion aside for the time being. The magic net is indeed a miracle in magic. Mr. Xia, as an amazing mage on the God Continent, you should communicate with the mages of the Euro continent if you have the chance. By the way, I know that the term you call the mage here is literally "the noble person who pursues the truth". This is exactly the same as the basic spirit of the Aoy era. The mage is the noble because they pursue the truth."
Xiao Xia smiled bitterly embarrassedly. If translated literally, "Tao" can indeed be said to be "truth". "Scholars" should be simply described as "noble people", but if you want to say "Taoist" is "noble people who pursue truth". I don't know how much the fellow practitioners in the martial arts pit were caught in the mortal pit to earn a few taels of silver.
"Speaking of this, although I am not proficient in spells, I can feel extraordinary attainments from the spells you cast by Mr. Xia. Especially the spell you awaken me can heal slight soul trauma. This is a very difficult thing for clergy who use the power of gods. Also, you are not assisted by the Magic Net, but you can directly dismantle the consciousness group compressed by the Magic Net. This is only a great magician on our Euro continent, and you are so young... It makes me respect your Western civilization."
Looking at the sincere expression on the face of the old man Aguris, Xiao Xia felt even more embarrassed. Fortunately, the carriage had arrived at the place where they lived, a courtyard specially arranged by Liu Junfeng for the two European guests. It was also spacious in a secluded place next to Luoshui City, enough for more than ten people to live in. The old man Aguris's current identity is already a "Gentile envoy", which is of great significance. The carriage and a group of servants are also arranged together with the courtyard of this residence.
As soon as the old man Aguris got off the carriage, Minks, who had been guarding the gate, rushed over, bowed to the old man, and then looked up and down carefully: "Sir, are you okay?"
"Of course it's okay. I said I'm just going to the banquet, Knight Minks." The old man Aguris smiled helplessly.
"I don't believe these Westerners, they are very cunning. Especially this mage." The strong man from the European glanced at Xiao Xia and said in a muffled voice. "You know I don't like mages, they are all very cunning."
"You are so rude, Knight Minks. Even if it is not Incred, or Oyudostan, you must not despise others just because others are mages." Old Man Aguris' expression and words became serious. "What's more, Mr. Xia's wisdom and friendliness have been respected by me. He is definitely a respectable friend. You have to apologize to him."
"Okay, I apologize to you, Master Xia. I hope you are not too cunning." The strong man from Oro, who called Minks, nodded to Xiaoxia in a dull way.
Xiao Xia was so amused and laughed. Whether she was praised or apologized in person, she always felt a little embarrassed. Over the past few days, he was still a little unaccustomed to the straightforward words of the Europeans.
Aguris sighed: "The loyalty and integrity of the Knight Minks are undoubtedly. They are the Templar who has been tested by our Lord Amanta. But his mind has never been very useful. It seems that he has received many heavy blows in the battles in his early years. It took too long to be completely cured. And because of some unpleasant experiences in the past, he has always had a bad impression of the mage. Please forgive him, Mr. Xia."
"I didn't mind at all. The straightforwardness expressed by this Minks Knight only makes people feel..." Xiao Xia pondered the Euro vocabulary in her mind. "...Cute."
"Cute?" Aguris was stunned and smiled. "This is the most interesting evaluation I have ever heard of Minks. Your mind and humor are as unfathomable as your spells."
The strong man Mingx didn't know if he understood it, but just stared at Xiaoxia and sniffed like a much shorter and stronger cow. This strong man from Europe fought against Tianhe Ghost and Liu Junfeng in a previous fight in the inn. He was seriously injured. After using his magic to stimulate potential, he fell into weakness, his joints were sprained, and his movements were inconvenient, so he did not follow the old man Aguris to guard. However, judging from his current appearance, it would probably not take long to recover.
"Master Xia, are you back?" Mingyue also walked out of the yard. Xiao Xia was going to follow the old man Aguris, so she naturally lived here with her. This place is naturally much more convenient than the Taoist temple of the Crow Taoist, at least there is no need to disguise herself as a Taoist boy. She has now returned to the white dress with long hair draped over her shoulders. Although she does not apply makeup, she is still bright and indifferent.
"Ah, Mr. Xia, your beautiful lover, Miss Mingyue, is here. Whenever I see her, I always feel that taking up your time is a great sin. It seems that I should leave you some private space. If there is nothing to do, you don't have to accompany me." Aguris patted Xiaoxia on the shoulder, smiled at Mingyue who was walking towards her, and turned around and walked into the yard with Minks.
Although she couldn't speak, Mingyue also felt some strange kindness in the smile of the old man Aguris. She nodded and smiled, and then asked Xiaoxia after watching him and Minks leave: "What did he say to you?"
"Nothing." Xiao Xia smiled and shook her head. She looked at Mingyue and sighed unconsciously. "I'm so sorry. I can't accompany you to Heimulin these days. I can't refuse that person entrusted by Lord Liu in person. I have to wait for the people from the capital to get out."
Mingyue smiled sensibly: "It doesn't matter, it's not far from here anyway. Don't we have nearly a month left?"
"Yes." Xiao Xia nodded. This was also an important reason why he agreed to Liu Junfeng. Since he had already had the risk of exposure, he had to stay in Luoshui City and wait for the next sea boat. It was a good choice to get closer to this Lord Zhou Mu.
"By the way, the Crow Taoist is here, I've been waiting for you in there for a while."
"Oh? What is he here to do?" Xiao Xia frowned. This fellow Taoist is the person he has the most headache and the least willing to see. But he still owes someone else's treasure to pass on the clan, so he is embarrassed to refuse.
"He said he wanted to invite the old man named Aguris to his Taoist temple to talk about Taoism."
###
At this time, in Liu Junfeng's study, the leader of Hushan Sect had just been led in by the guards.
"I've seen Lord Liu." Facing Liu Junfeng, this big man with a thorny head and a stinky face still smiled like a cat. "Lord Liu is busy with all kinds of things and works hard for the court and the country. The villain originally did not dare to disturb him at will, but he found an important matter and then came to disturb him."
"It's okay. You are also the supervisor of the Qingzhou General League of Justice League. I also have the responsibility to listen to your report on the affairs of the world. Just tell me what you have." Liu Junfeng closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. If it weren't for this reason, he would never waste time and energy to meet this person. This is just a treacherous villain who is accustomed to taking advantage of tricks. His personal qualities are not worth mentioning, but the force behind it made Liu Junfeng unable to ignore it. Standing at his height, he certainly understood what the righteous alliance created by the Nangong family meant, and from the perspective of the court, he must also cooperate with the actions of the Shadow Shirt Guard.
"Mr. Liu, this matter is very important, please..." The head of Hushan Gate glanced at the guard who was left at the door.
Liu Junfeng frowned again, hesitated for a moment, raised his hand to signal the guard to leave, and then looked at the leader of Hushan Sect: "What's the matter?"
The Lord of Hushan Sect lowered his voice, as if he was reporting a shocking secret, with indescribable mystery and excitement in his voice: "...This matter fell on the Qingfeng Taoist of the Maoshan Sect..."
