Look at the steed in front of you. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although it was only the first time they met, Li Xiuyuan felt that this dragon horse seemed to have known him for a long time, and there was an indescribable sense of intimacy between them.
It's a bit ridiculous, but it's real.
Li Xiuyuan only looked at this dragon horse seriously at this moment.
But I saw that the whole body of this dragon horse was white and flawless, and in the dark night, the mane on the body was as bright as silk, silky, and the sturdy body was different from the ordinary horse, not only tall and mighty, but also slender, a horse's head was like a dragon's head, and it almost did not grow two dragon horns.
Ordinary people can tell that this horse is extraordinary just by looking at it.
Not only is it a rare thousand-mile horse in a hundred years, but it also shows miracles everywhere.
The dragon horse neighed a few times, stood up, and slowly came to Li Xiuyuan's face, lowered his head, and rubbed against him affectionately, as if he had identified Li Xiuyuan as the master.
"Such a horse only appears in the painting, and if it were alive, it would not have appeared at all. Li Xiuyuan touched Ryoma's head and said secretly in his heart.
However, under his caressing, he felt that this dragon horse was flesh and blood, and it was not an ethereal thing at all.
Perhaps only a painter like Zhang Seng Xuan, who has already painted the gods, can do this.
"When my soul is back in the flesh, carry me and go. Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved and he spoke.
Ryoma hissed and looked quite happy.
Li Xiuyuan immediately returned to his body, and then strode out of the house, but at this time Ryoma was already half-kneeling on the ground, very spiritual, and motioned for him to sit up.
"I, Li Xiuyuan, am not a scholar with no strength, I don't need to cater to me like this, I can still sit on your horseback. Li Xiuyuan smiled, turned over and sat up.
Ryoma's head shook, his mane flew, and his sturdy body jumped up, like a white dragon about to soar into the sky.
This dragon horse carried Li Xiuyuan and galloped up, he just felt that his body sank, and the dragon horse jumped lightly from the ground, flew more than a foot high, easily crossed the eaves, and landed on the roof.
Four hooves stepped on the ground, not a single brick was broken, as if the whole horse was light and weightless.
"Haha, a good dragon horse, it's really rare in the world, it can fly over the eaves, why don't you take me around Huaxian?" Li Xiuyuan laughed.
Ryoma neighed again, raised his front hooves, understood Li Xiuyuan's words, and immediately put his feet down, and his sturdy body jumped out, and flew out of three or five zhang away, and easily landed on the roof of Qiao's lobby, and then stepped on the roof and continued to run forward, and did not fall on the street, so he carried Li Xiuyuan to run in Huaxian, which was really incredible.
Li Xiuyuan only understood what the legendary treasure horse was at this moment, and what it meant to climb mountains and wade through rivers, as if walking on the ground.
"Whew!"
The dragon horse neighed, the sound was like a horse neighing, and it was more like a dragon groaning, at this moment the dragon horse let go of the iron hooves and ran on the roof of the Huaxian residence, the speed was as fast as the wind, the movement was light and agile, and the momentum was like flying into the air.
And Li Xiuyuan, who was sitting on horseback, did not feel the bumps and tiredness at all.
There is this divine horse in the crotch, if it is a peerless general in ancient times, he will definitely dare to take the head of the enemy general from the army.
Because it was the middle of the night, most of the people in Huaxian County were already asleep, and the scene of the dragon horse galloping was almost not seen, even if someone saw it, they only saw a white voice passing by, and they would only feel dazzled, and they would never imagine that it would be a horse running on the roof.
However, this scene, Master Qiao in Qiao's Mansion saw it very clearly.
When he saw Ryoma carrying Li Xiuyuan out of the mansion on his back, there was only surprise on his face, and even his palms couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Zhang Sengqiu's dragon horse is willing to let other people ride, this, how is this possible?" Master Qiao muttered to himself, and his heart was not calm for a long time.
His Qiao family since the ancestors got this dragon horse picture, although they know that this dragon horse picture is magical, but for hundreds of years, no one can be lucky enough to ride the dragon horse, the ancestors of the Qiao family have not tried a tough method, the dragon horse is bound, trying to forcibly tame, but the dragon horse turned into a white light into the painting, for 30 years, the miracle is not obvious, like a mundane thing, the ancestors of the Qiao family are also annoyed and remorseful, and finally died of depression.
And since then, the Qiao family has no idea of forcibly taming Ryoma.
Master Qiao is also a person who reads poetry and books, and he knows very well that the reason why Ryoma is reluctant to let you ride is not because Ryoma is unruly, but because he is not worthy of riding Ryoma.
But today, Ryoma actually took the initiative to carry that Li Xiuyuan on his back and was willing to let him ride.
"Li Xiuyuan is just a child, even if he tries it in the academy this time, it is only the identity of Xiucai, how can he tame the dragon horse. ”
Master Qiao thumped his chest a little and said, you must know that he is also a talented person, but he can't be treated by this dragon horse.
Now that Ryoma has recognized the Lord, how willing does this make him, not to mention, as soon as this Ryoma recognizes the Lord, I am afraid that this monk's Ryoma picture will not be able to be saved.
Even if you don't give it to this Li Xiuyuan, Ryoma will also go away with this Li Xiuyuan, and when the time comes, what is the use of holding an empty painting in your hand?
It must be known that the dragon that Zhang Seng Miao put the finishing touch on has flown away, and the dragon horse will naturally run away, and a painting will not keep the dragon horse.
Master Qiao had a lot of thoughts at the moment, but after a while, when he calmed down, he secretly thought: "Although this Li Xiuyuan is just a child, since he can make Ryoma recognize the master, it must be extraordinary, if it is an ordinary mediocre person, Ryoma will not pay attention to it, and if he is so good at letting him ride, maybe my troubles these days, this Li Xiuyuan can help me solve it." ”
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look forward to it.
If this is the case, this Long Matu gritted his teeth and gave it to this Li Xiuyuan, and it can be regarded as pushing the boat down the river, and it is the beauty of an adult.
Now.
After Li Xiuyuan rode a dragon horse and ran around Huaxian for a few laps, he could be regarded as having some fun, but he did not forget his business.
When he was riding a dragon horse, he also found the location of Zhang Yuanwai and Zhang's mansion.
The main purpose of coming to Huaxian this time is to send Zhang Yingjie to reincarnate, and it is tentatively scheduled to reincarnate Zhang Yingjie to this Zhang Mansion.
"Sending Zhang Yingjie to Zhang's Mansion at night is inevitably a little inappropriate. ”
Li Xiuyuan wanted to ride a dragon horse to Zhang's mansion to handle Zhang Yingjie's affairs first, but after thinking about it for a while, he still felt that this matter could be postponed.
At present, finding the soul for Miss Qiao's family first is the most important thing.
And he is also a scholar, how can he be a thief in the middle of the night, and this matter is not in a hurry, thinking of this, he rode back to the courtyard of Qiao's house on a dragon horse.
"It's going to be dawn soon, and it will definitely be bad for you to be seen by others at that time, go back, you and I will meet next time." ”
He parted ways with Ryoma and motioned for Ryoma to return to the painting.
After all, this is the Qiao family's dragon horse map, not his own, even if the dragon horse is destined for himself, he can't stand for himself privately.
The dragon horse neighed a few times, and looked at Li Xiuyuan with some reluctance, the iron hooves moved in front of him again and again, but he didn't want to leave.
Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Go back, we still have a moment to meet, and when the time comes, after I rescue Miss Qiao's family, maybe Master Qiao will be enlightened and give you to me." ”
Ryoma seemed to be in a much better mood when he heard this, and after hissing, he ran away, and finally turned into a white light and disappeared in Qiao's mansion.
After Li Xiuyuan saw Ryoma leave, he turned around and went back to the house to rest for a while.
When it was dawn, he woke up the two guards who had slept all night, prepared for it, and left Qiao's mansion.
"Li Gongzi, where are you going early this morning?"
The old servant who was guarding the door of Qiao's Mansion woke up early and asked curiously when he saw that Li Xiuyuan and his party were going out.
"Entrusted by people to be loyal, I promised Master Qiao to help Miss Qiao's soul find it, so naturally I want to go around and inquire around, I can't sit in your mansion and wait for Miss Qiao's soul to come back by itself. After Li Xiuyuan finished speaking, he left with the guards.
Seeing that Li Xiuyuan went to run so early, the old servant felt that this was an honest person, and his own young lady's affairs should be able to get rid of him.
"Young Master, we are new to this Hua County, where can we go to find out Miss Qiao's soul. On the way, the guard spoke.
Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "There is a saying since ancient times, there are gods and spirits in the three feet of the head, since Miss Qiao's soul was lost in Hua County, then it must be found in Hua County, and within a county, there are inevitably a few temples with flourishing incense, and it is always right to ask in the temple." ”
"Where shall we go to the City God Temple?" the guard asked.
"No, I saw it in Huaxian, there are land temples, ancestral halls, and temples, but there is no Chenghuang Temple, and the largest temple here is Guanyin Temple. Li Xiuyuan said.
The absence of a temple means that this place is not under the jurisdiction of the temple.
For example, in Guobei County, there used to be a City God Temple, but after Li Xiuyuan was born, the incense of the City God Temple was not as good as day by day, and finally changed to a singing theater.
Since the incense of the Guanyin Temple is the most prosperous here, it must be right to go where to find out the news.
Where incense is at its peak, there must be ghosts and gods.
If there are spirits and gods, they will know the affairs of the land.
Because Li Xiuyuan rode a dragon horse through Huaxian County several times at night, he knew some local conditions, and after having a little breakfast with the guards on the street, he came to the Guanyin Temple.
Huaxian County is not a big place, and it is not as prosperous as Guobei County, but the strange thing is that in front of this Guanyin Temple, the incense is extraordinarily prosperous, and it is only early in the morning that the pilgrims who come in and out are already in an endless stream.
In addition, there are also many vendors in front of the Guanyin Temple who set up stalls to sell incense, lamp oil, candle paper, gold and silver ingots.
All kinds of sacrificial items are available here.
"There are so many people. Li Xiuyuan said secretly in his heart.
But after he immediately paid attention to it, he frowned slightly: "The people here are living in poverty, and there are many vegetables on their faces, why is the incense in front of this Guanyin Temple so prosperous?"
In his view, only when the people are rich will they ask God.
If you can't even eat, where will you go to worship God?
But the situation here is the opposite, he saw a woman very painfully took out dozens of dollars from her clothes, bought some incense candles, and entered the Guanyin Temple.
I also saw a thin black man, dressed in tattered clothes, but he didn't know where to take out a dime of broken silver, bought a lot of sacrifices, and hurried into the temple, ready to worship the gods.
"Young Master, there are more and more people this early in the morning, let's hurry in, I'm afraid it's too late, it's crowded inside." "Two guards protected the left and right, blocking the crowd passing by.
Li Xiuyuan looked around, thinking in his heart: "This temple is a little strange, it is not as simple as an ordinary temple. ”
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't waste any time, and walked into the Guanyin Temple with his guards.
As soon as he entered the temple, he smelled a strong smell of incense.
The smell of incense here is several times heavier than the City God Temple in Guo Beicheng.
"With such a heavy smell of incense, isn't it that Guanyin often manifests its spirits to help sentient beings?" Li Xiuyuan thought in his heart.
Only if the temple is effective, there is a scene of incense flourishing, if it is not effective, it is the temple built no matter how magnificent it is, and there will not be many people to worship.
The people pray to God for the sake of doing things, not simply contributing incense.
After looking around, he found that there were no other statues of gods in this temple, and only one statue of gods was enshrined in the large and tall hall.
A statue of Guanyin.
The Guanyin lowered her eyebrows, ecological and natural, dressed as a woman, holding a baby in her hand, is a statue of Guanyin.
However, what made Li Xiuyuan pay attention was that this statue was three feet tall and golden and bright, and from his many years of experience in contact with gold and silver at home, this three-zhang high statue should be made after smelting gold, silver and copper.
Copper on the inside, silver on the middle, and gold on the outside.
Only in this way can this statue of Guanyin be built so magnificently, majestic and rich.
