The Headmaster was furious and scolded, "How did I teach such an unreasonable guy like you?"
Second Brother was stunned. He thought that he had always been the Headmaster's disciple and everyone knew that he was the most reasonable person. Why did the Headmaster say that he was unreasonable?
Although Wenguo was not happy, he reflected on himself first. He bowed deeply and asked, "Master, last time when we talked about revenge in front of the cliff cave, you asked me to tell Eldest Brother that he must be resolute and decisive. Did I misunderstand?"
The Headmaster said angrily, "Your Eldest Brother is gentle and benevolent, so he needs you as a mirror to learn how to be more direct. But you are too direct, so I have always taught you to be more cautious. But now? You don't even understand what's going on, yet you want to fight and kill. You only have the bravery of Youngest Uncle, but you don't have the courage of Youngest Uncle … Alright, he indeed doesn't have anything else worth praising, but you and your Youngest Uncle, other than being braver than me, what else can you do? "
Second Brother was very particular about filial piety. Facing the Headmaster's stern scolding, he should not defend himself. Even if he wanted to respect the reason, he should wait until the Headmaster's anger subsided. But when he heard the Headmaster mention his most respected Youngest Uncle, he did not know how to defend himself.
"Headmaster, I remember what Youngest Uncle said to me and Senior Brother when we were young. If we only have courage left, then courage is all we have."
The Headmaster was stunned and suddenly laughed. He waved his sleeves and said, "That's reasonable. In fact, I also said this to your Youngest Brother. If the night really comes, we can just fight back. Why do we need to think so much?"
The Eldest Brother thought of the words Youngest Uncle left behind when he left the back of the mountain on the black donkey. He did not smile like his teacher and younger brother, but became more and more worried. He said, "Since we are going to resist, why don't we make some preparations before the night comes?"
The Headmaster stopped smiling and said, "Because we don't know where the wind comes from and where the night comes from. Then everything we do in advance may be wrong. Of course, I hope all our guesses are wrong and the night doesn't come."
Eldest Brother looked up at the sky and sighed. "If the night comes, the light should be the most important. Why does Haotian have no reaction? I really don't understand what the heavens are thinking. "
The Headmaster looked up at the dark sky and said, "Look, it's what I said before. There is no omniscient person in the world. I don't know what the sky is thinking. It has been proving this for countless years, so at least we know that it is unknowable. "

Billions of people in the world had long forgotten the origin and origin of the Yue Laan Hungry Ghost Festival. The Underworld still existed in their legends and childhood stories, but it had long become a real legend or story. No one believed that the Underworld really existed, and no one believed in the nonsense of the Underworld Invasion.
In the eyes of the people, the Yue Laan Hungry Ghost Festival was an important festival to worship ancestors and feed ghosts. The orchid pots placed along the streets, the young girls dressed in traditional clothes, all kinds of tempting food, and the custom of lanterns made the festival not tainted with the slightest bit of gloomy and ghostly aura. Instead, it was full of beautiful and charming images.
The Yue Laan Hungry Ghost Festival at the Lanke Temple was naturally a grand event in the cultivation world. The Yue Laan Hungry Ghost Festival itself was also a grand event in the world. Other than cultivators, there were also countless tourists, pilgrims, and official delegations from various countries. They set off from different cities and headed towards the Lanke Temple.
The Tang Empire also sent a delegation according to the old custom. The level of the delegation was very high. To everyone's surprise, the envoy who represented His Majesty to tour the world was the Zhenxi General Xian Zhilang.
The Zhenxi General was one of the Four Royal Generals of the Tang Empire. After Xiahou's death, his status became even more important. General Xian Zhilang himself was also a legendary figure. His Martial Arts cultivation state was extremely ordinary, but he had made many military achievements with his exquisite battlefield command. He had been continuously promoted until today.
In the military of the Tang Empire, which revered military force, three of the four Generals were experts at the peak of Martial Arts. Xian Zhilang's individual force was so weak, but he could stand shoulder to shoulder with the other three. Just from this point, it could be imagined that he had an amazing ability in intelligence or other aspects.
Such a figure was definitely qualified to represent the Tang Empire to tour the world. However, the envoy was usually a civil official. Even if His Majesty wanted to show enough respect to the Buddhism Sect, it would be enough to send a noble civil official with a title. Why would he send a general? Therefore, this appointment still caused a great controversy in Chang 'an and aroused great doubts in the South Jin Kingdom. Who knew if the general would look at the scenery or the city defense along the way? Who knew if the warlike Tang Empire wanted to start a new war?
In the end, people confirmed from some gossip that the reason why His Majesty sent Xian Zhilang was mainly because of the following reasons. After Xiahou's death, the position of Marshal of the Northeast Border Military, which he had once held, was still vacant. The Yuelun Kingdom in the west of the Tang Empire was no longer a threat, so Xian Zhilang wanted to be transferred to Tuyang City. Everyone knew that Her Highness in the Princess's Mansion had been trying to win over the Great General of the West in recent years. This news directly caused the Empress to be furious. In order to appease his wife's anger, His Majesty had to temporarily put aside the transfer order. In order to appease his daughter and the important general of the country, he simply sent General Xian to the Lanke Temple to relax.
His Majesty's actions were close to fooling around. He was completely treating the affairs of the country as a family matter, which made people not know whether to laugh or cry. However, it also made many men who were troubled by family matters feel a lot of sympathy, and it also made those young girls who yearned for love feel even more admiration.
Accompanying the envoy to the Lanke Temple was the dance troupe of the House of Red Sleeves.
Thirty years ago, after the former Emperor of the Tang Empire forcibly summoned the House of Red Sleeves from the South Jin Kingdom to Chang 'an, the daughters of the House of Red Sleeves only went to the Lanke Temple to participate in the Yue Laan Hungry Ghost Festival once. Since then, they had never left Chang' an. After more than 20 years, the House of Red Sleeves went out again and attracted a lot of attention.
All eyes were on the official envoy of the Tang Empire. No one noticed that about a dozen miles behind the envoy, there was a black horse carriage traveling alone on the official road.
The wall of the black horse carriage was engraved with complicated and indescribable lines that looked like heavy brocade. Looking at the cold reflection, it seemed to be made of iron and should be extremely heavy. However, the strange thing was that the black horse that was pulling the carriage was leisurely. The carriage traveled on the official road silently, as if it was as light as a feather.
…
…
"The Great General of the Tang Empire, the East and the West … Why are all the Tang Empire's generals in the West? I wonder when there will be a Zhen Guanxi. Come to think of it, you don't know who Zhen Guanxi is."
In the carriage, Ning Que leaned on the soft couch and said with a satisfied expression.
This black horse carriage was a magnificent legacy left to him by his master, Yan Se. It looked ordinary and cold, even a little stiff, but the carriage was very spacious and the equipment was extremely luxurious and comfortable.
The carriage was made of stainless steel and was extremely heavy. In the beginning, when he did not have the ability to activate the talisman lines engraved on the carriage, the Big Black Horse was in great pain. When the wheels ran over the carriage, the earth cracked. The wheels were also made of steel, but they did not have any effect on the shock absorption. It was extremely uncomfortable for him, so he rarely sat in this carriage.
Now, as he cultivated, his Great Spirit became stronger and his state gradually improved. Especially after the guidance of Seventh Sister, he finally understood that the lines on the carriage wall were not pure talismans, but a kind of compound talisman array. After mastering the talisman array on the carriage wall, the faint aura of Heaven and Earth lingered around the black horse carriage and produced some kind of buoyancy.
The heavy black horse carriage became a feather floating in the water. No matter how hard the wheels were, the people sitting in the carriage would not feel the bumps. The painful journey suddenly became a pleasure.
However, although the talisman array on the carriage wall was permanent and could summon the aura of Heaven and Earth in nature, it also needed the aura of Heaven and Earth to maintain the talisman array. If Ning Que did not want to die of exhaustion of his Psyche Power, he had to put a gem in the array eye of the carriage every once in a while.
This kind of gem, which contained a relatively high concentration of the Qi of Heaven and Earth, was extremely precious. It was hard to find even in the jewelry shops in Chang 'an. Now, the black horse carriage could travel so easily on the long journey because he had gone to the Imperial Center Administration and the Southern Gate Temple to cheat and rob a box of gems.
The black horse carriage was very luxurious, and the amount of gems it consumed made it even more luxurious. If he was not Mr. Thirteen of the Academy, and if he did not have the resources provided by the entire Tang Empire, it would be impossible for him to do so.
Ning Que understood this. When he represented the Academy to enter the human realm, his Senior Brother had also told him this. Therefore, although he did not want to care about these things in the imperial court, he had to care.
"Xian Zhilang is a very interesting person," he said.
Sangsang closed her eyes and softly hummed. Her body had basically recovered. The reason why she closed her eyes and hummed so softly was that she felt so comfortable that she did not want to open her eyes, let alone speak.
Ning Que and Sixth Brother had opened a skylight on the roof of the horse carriage. The blazing summer sun penetrated through the skylight and sprinkled on her body, warming her up all the way.
The black horse carriage was made of stainless steel. No matter the color or the material, it was the best to absorb heat. However, perhaps because of the cold aura in Sangsang's body, the horse carriage still seemed so cool after being exposed to the scorching sun for a long time. It did not feel stuffy at all.
Ning Que did not feel hot at all. Sangsang's cold little feet were always in his arms. It was very comfortable, as if he was holding two little jade fish that had been frozen for a few days.
He moved Sangsang's little feet a little and reached out to pick up a delicate small porcelain pot on the low table beside him. He took a sip of the delightfully fragrant tea and turned to look out of the window.
He saw the farmland on both sides of the official road outside the window. Some farmers were painting their homes, some willows were swaying in the wind, and some naked children were playing in the paddy fields.
These scenes always made people feel happy and happy. Ning Que looked at those naked, dark-skinned naughty children and felt that he had seen them somewhere before. Then he realized that as long as he walked in the territory of the Tang Empire, it would be easy to see similar scenes, because happiness was always similar.
He looked at Sangsang's dark little face and smiled, thinking that this long journey was actually not bad even if there was no end. At this moment, the Big Black Horse seemed to feel his thoughts and happily neighed.

(Homology in progress. I'm also on my journey today. I know it's not fun to read one chapter a day, but if I can keep updating and try not to open the skylight, I'm really working hard … I strongly recommend a novel to everyone to fill our lonely days. The novel is called Grand Master of Dreams. I don't know the author. This is not an advertisement. I'm just a reader who likes reading this book. The word homology comes from this book. This novel has no three views, and now it seems to have no bottom line. I like it … It's very good. I seriously recommend it to everyone.) (To be continued.
