Chapter 486

The Huanglong Temple is not big. Only two enter the courtyard. Three main rooms serve as the main hall. There are three clay statues and gold statues of the heavenly deities. On both sides are several wing rooms for the gods and kings next to the heavenly deities.

Passing through the main hall is the resting place for the Taoist priests of Huanglong Temple. Six small rooms are lined up in the north, an open space is in the west, and then out is the wanzhang cliff.

To the East is the kitchen, with pots and pans, stove and kettle. A curl of cooking smoke is coming out of the chimney. A Taoist is sitting in front of the stove and burning a fire. Another gray haired Taoist is killing fish by the basin with a knife.

"Qingfeng, it's a good time for you to come back. I just caught a fat fish in the mountain stream today, and your boy came back."

The old Taoist with gray hair didn't lift his head, so he scolded the little Taoist Qingfeng.

Qingfeng's face was red and white. He stood at the door of the kitchen stuffy: "master, the Lord is coming. You can't hear me. Please pay attention to your words."

The old Taoist threw down his knife, washed the scales and blood on his hands in the basin, and said angrily, "if you come, you don't have to divide more meat. Really, you have to go to work. Now, if you don't have food in the temple, you won't have to eat the meat you finally caught."

Qingfeng has rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "the army under the Lord has gone hunting. Dozens of yellow sheep and Swertia will be sent over later."

The old Taoist immediately smiled, wiped his hands, and politely said to Su Lu outside the door:

"There are many distinguished guests. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Please have tea in the side hall, and tea in the side hall."

Master Zhenyuan led Su Lu into the side room and swept his chair twice. "Please sit down, Lord. I'm glad you're here. What's the matter with you?"

"Let me see the Taoist priest's wooden bird. Our army fought with the Taixi coalition army against Xianyang. Our army's flying bird is not the opponent of the Taixi people's flying bird. The war is in a stalemate. I heard Taoist Qingfeng say that the Lord has a flying bird that can fly for half a day. I'm here to ask for advice."

The real elder Taoist turned his eyes, rubbed his hands and said with a smile:

"Well, it's easy to say. It's just carpentry skills. Just look, Lord, it's about noon. If it's late, the meat will not be cooked."

Nearby, Su Ge said discontentedly, "you Huanglong Temple have gone to work. You can still lack that little meat. Besides, you are also an expert. You can also short meat on weekdays."

Taoist Zhenyuan turned his eyes when he heard the speech: "this is the personal guard under the prince? You are a noble man. You are popular and spicy on weekdays. I am guarding this poor Taoist temple. How can I lack food and drink. Now that the war is in chaos and the Pilgrims and customers have fled for their lives, who will come to the Taoist temple? The three Taoist teachers and disciples have not starved to death. They are already capable."

Cao hualeng snorted: "I heard from the mountain people that nearly 500 mu of good farmland at the foot of Huanglong Mountain is your private property of Huanglong Mountain. If you plant some potatoes and sweet potatoes, you won't be hungry."

"Empty words, cunning, saying, what selfishness is hidden?"

Cao Huali drank, and his hand had been pressed on the handle of the sabre around his waist.

Old Taoist Zhenyuan coughed and was discouraged. His shoulder collapsed. He said, "let's talk about wooden bird. My old Taoist's surname was Lu before he became a monk. My family has been a carpenter for generations. My ancestor has uploaded a craft to make wooden bird."

"Our old Lu family has a rule. If young students want to graduate, they must be able to make wooden kites that can fly in the sky for a long time without falling. Old man, I can't learn at home. The wooden kites can only fly for a long time. If they can't even arrive at noon, they will fall from the sky."

Old Taoist Zhenyuan sighed, as if he had just failed a graduation examination.

After being lost for a while, old Taoist Zhenyuan rummaged through the boxes and found his own wooden kite in the cage of another disciple Mingyue. He handed the wooden kite to Su Ge, who was snooping nearby. Old Taoist carefully stared at his disciple's cage for a while.

"Smelly boy hid so much private money."

The old Taoist priest said, his hand was like electricity, and he took something out of the cage.

Su Lu took the as like as two peas and saw the moment, and handed it to the ordnance craftsman who was accompanying him. He asked, "can you disassemble the wooden kite and make the same exact one?"

The craftsman shook his head, and his voice was full of praise: "this thing is much more powerful than the internal breathing conversion cabinet. Taoist Zhenyuan's craftsmanship is really powerful."

The old Taoist cried, "don't praise me. I don't know where to put my old face because I didn't graduate at such an old age."

Su Lu asked and said, "Taoist priest, the days of Huanglong Temple are hard. Do you want to return to your hometown?"

The old Taoist narrowed his eyes and said angrily, "what do you do when you go home? You don't have to lose the old Taoist's face."

"If you are willing to become an official, I can recommend you as an official of the Ministry of industry. If you want to establish yourself in the army with martial arts, I can also recommend you as a general."

Su Lu looked at the old Taoist priest and said gently.

Mingyue jumped in from the window outside and grabbed a money bag from the old Taoist.

"Shifu, you stole my money bag again. I have all the last money in our view. If you take it and gamble, we'll really drink the West and north wind."

The Taoist priest looked at the money bag in Mingyue Taoist boy's hand, and the meat on his face pumped a few times. Finally, he waved his hand in pain.

"If you don't go or not, what's good about joining the army and being an official? My old Taoist is still safe and stable as my Taoist priest."

Cao hualeng snorted: "toast and don't drink."

The old Taoist narrowed his eyes and a bright light flashed in his eyes. He glanced at Cao Hua and said coldly:

"This is general Cao Hua, the disciple of the Lord, who is as famous as the famous general Xiao Yan of Southern Chu, the famous general Xie Ruyu of Tang state and the famous general Wei beard. Now it seems that it is just so."

"You"

Cao Hua will be angry.

Su Lu waved his hand, motioned Cao Hua to step back, continued to ask Taoist Zhenyuan and said, "Taoist priest doesn't want to become an official or join the army. Can the Taoist priest introduce me to your master? It's up to your master to become an official or join the army."

Old Taoist Zhenyuan immediately widened his eyes, pinched his beard, thought for a long time with a sad face, and finally patted his thigh:

"It's not impossible to join the army, but Lord, what do you want me to do? Although I have some martial arts skills, it's not worth mentioning compared with thousands of troops and horses and with Lord you."

Su Lu pointed to the wooden kite in the craftsman's hand and said:

"Of course, please go and build birds that fly people to the sky, transform the existing birds in Han China, and let the birds fly higher, faster and farther."

"A bird that can carry people?"

The old Taoist pulled off one of his beards and looked unbelievable.

"There are really birds that can fly in the sky. It's impossible!"

Su Lu smiled, "if so, Taoist Zhenyuan, can you recommend a great master?"

Old Taoist Zhenyuan grabbed his beard and sneered on his face: "OK, if you can really fly to heaven, don't introduce the master. It's worth my old Taoist to go with you in person."

"Hum"

Old Taoist Zhenyuan's face was full of sarcasm. Even with his internal strength, this fart bird can't carry people to the sky.

The little bird flying in the sky is a fucking dream.
