Chapter 60 The Rainbow
The clouds move with their sleeves.
The slaves knelt tremblingly and dared not look around. Their vision was blocked by the high river bank. They felt dark on all sides, and the breeze was blowing, and only Lujia Fort was bathed in the sun.
However, the people upstairs could see the rain drizzling drizzles drizzling from two hundred feet away, making the river of shattered duckweeds in Xiaoshui.
The Maoshan elder Lin Pu's eyes were cold, and he swept the castle under the castle, and returned to the building with no expression.
The ordinary people watched the heads and were frightened. For the great monks, there was just a missing an ant in the world. Whether it was slaves, civilians, or nobles, there was no big difference in their eyes.
Big ant, that's also an ant!
The reason why he was quite polite to Lu Bo was because the old guy was tactful and dedicated his wealth he had accumulated over his lifetime to Maoshan Taoist Sect, and was particularly filial to himself. Otherwise, just relying on his son Lu Yuan, who was of average qualification, would have earned such a great deal of face?
Seeing the elder performing his magical skills and retreating, Lu Yuan and two disciples followed him happily and flattered him.
One talk:
"The elder's magical power is amazing, shocking the world and crying ghosts and gods..."
One who is unwilling to fall behind said:
"The master blew his sleeves casually, and the wind rushed straight into the sky and shook the clouds. If you used a little more force, you would be afraid that the sky would collapse. According to the disciples..."
Lin Pu glanced at them and said unhappily:
"People who practice should be indifferent and humble, and should not be arrogant and complacent. Do you want to praise the old Taoist like you, and put a high hat on the fire to roast it?"
The two of them had a sluggish expression, and the remaining one hurriedly said:
"This time I accompanied my uncle to Jiangnan, and my disciples really benefited from great blessings. Not only did I ride the yellow crane, but I also listened to the teachings of the proverbs and the skills have increased a lot. The master's style is high and the mountains are long and the rivers are long. The four words of indifferent and humbleness are often spoken by people. How many can they do it? My master's sleeves are turned and the weather changes, but he only thinks that drinking water is normal, which is enough for the disciple to learn for a lifetime."
Lin Pu finally showed a smile, nodded and said:
"Well, the child is teaching, and these words are quite insightful... Remember, the world of lingering people is nothing. There are immortals above the monks, and there are gods above the immortals."
The four immortal masters stood back as if no one was around. Lubo, Lufang, the wizard, and the county magistrate watched with smiles, while the rest stood up with their heads.
Lu Yuan didn't look at his brother directly, but just nodded at his father. The county magistrate wanted to curry favor with Elder Linpu, but he bowed his hand in a vain, but the other party treated it as air and couldn't even get the edge.
The mage looked at the sky, then at the ruler on the ground, reminding Lu Bo that the time has come.
Lu Bo used his eyes to signal the Lu side.
Although the youngest son is proud of his ancestors, the incense a hundred years later still relies on his elder son's lineage. He must cultivate his prestige and he will be able to calm down Lujiabao in the future.
On the platform, Diao Gui erected a shiny ghost-headed knife and sprayed water on the blade.
The old Cang head did not struggle or twitch, and looked up at the sky with clouds.
Lu Fang clasped the railings with both hands, cleared his throat, and was about to give orders, but Huang Tang clasped his fists and shouted:
"Young Master, I have something important to report."
Lu Fang is a cowardly person and has no knowledge. He listened to Huang Tang's big and small matters and regarded him as his confidant. Seeing that he was serious about the matter, he hurriedly said, "Tell me quickly..."
The tall gatehouse was seven or eight feet away from the wooden platform, and Huang Tang shouted loudly:
"Young Master, these slaves are stubborn. I ran three yesterday, and maybe four tomorrow. The guards are young, so I can't watch every day... According to my opinion, today's strange phenomenon appears and it is not appropriate to be executed. The government will send an executioner to a public sentence and then behead it, indicating that the net of heaven is vast and unobstructed, which is to shock people. Otherwise, I think that after escaping, as long as I am not caught, it will be fine, and no one will take risks..."
When Lu Fang heard this, he made sense. He was about to agree, but he suddenly stood beside him and asked in a low voice.
The old fox Lubo narrowed his eyes and stared at Huang Tang below, snorting coldly in his nostrils.
He felt a little weird, something was wrong!
As the commander of the guards, Huang Tang might have been adopted if he proposed this prescription yesterday. But when he was at the critical moment, he changed his course and treated Lu Fang as a fool.
He also remembered Diao Gui's complaint, saying that Huang Tang gave Lao Cangtou a medicine for meat and injury, and told Lu that he would not want to die if he eats and drinks well. If Lao Cangtou only wants to die quickly, he would be cheaper than beheading him.
At that time, I was busy receiving the immortal master and put it aside. Now I look back and see that I am full of doubts.
Could it be that Huang Tang is delaying time and waiting for variables?
Lu Bo has always disliked Huang Tang and is preparing to find a reason to drive the person away after a while. Now he feels even more thorny on his back.
This kid is too smart, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not lead Lu Fang's nose in the future. Although Diao Gui was stupid, he established a literary contract, and he was half a servant and half a slave, and he did not dare to have any other intentions.
After clarifying his clues, Lu Bo said a few words to the Lu side.
Lu Fang was stunned, without hesitation, and shouted below: "It's already three o'clock in the afternoon, Commander Huang, you will be the execution."
Diao Gui thought he had fallen out of favor, so he went to Huang Tang with a dark face and handed the knife.
Huang Tang did not take the knife and stood stiffly on the stage, beads of sweat as big as beans rolling down from his forehead.
He is from the Jianghu area, and the city foxes and rats in Shanyin County are very familiar with each other.
They were entrusted to find out that on the morning when Luotong went to Lujiabao to buy slaves, a scholar who looked very much like a mortal master entered the slave city. Atu and others settled in Shanyin County. When they heard their joyful tone, someone should have picked him up half a month ago.
From this he judged that the mortal master was coming soon.
He took the risk of giving Lao Cangtou meat soup and delayed the time. In fact, he did not hope that he could be rescued, but he could ask for me from the mortal master in the future. Look, how I tried my best...
But he was anxious for a moment and was suspected by Rube. He knew that it was over!
If you kill Lao Cangtou with your own hands, you don’t have to think that you will be killed by the mortal master if you are lucky enough to escape, you will be killed after half a year of poisoning.
If you don’t take the knife, you will be more miserable than death.
Why did Lu Bo give Lao Cang a happy ending because the other party had blocked arrows for him and was afraid of being scolded by others. Huang Tang had no such concern when dealing with him. Maybe he could be cut into pieces and could not die for many days.
Seeing Huang Tang's appearance, Lu Bo was confident and deliberately turned his head to ask the county magistrate: "Sir, what should we do if we are stingy and bullying the master?"
The county magistrate also saw the clues and smiled and said, "It should be killed."
Luber nodded and shouted:
"Diao Gui, take Huang Tang."
When Diao Gui heard this, he squeaked... the big knife slashed. He thought to himself that you have today, so he should take off his arm first.
Huang Tang was fighting in his heart, and he didn't know what to do. Seeing a flash of sword light in front of him, he instinctively retreated, twisted his waist and sat on his hips, but it was a starting stance of a plum blossom mantis fist.
With only a few moves, Diao Gui knocked him down from the stage with one hand and grabbed the knife.
He has no way out.
The two big men holding the old Cangtou were confused and stunned when they saw the two leaders fighting each other. The old man rolled off the stage.
Although the guards below were not scattered, everyone looked at each other and were in a panic.
Diao Gui pulled out a guard's knife and was about to rush towards the wooden platform. However, Lu Bo in the castle scolded: "Distract, don't move, and surround the platform."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard vaguely thunder.
Four immortal masters rushed out from inside without looking at the wooden platform directly below to execute the prisoner, and turned to the right side of the gatehouse.
The clouds are thin, and the autumn rain stops after only a cup of tea, and the sun shines on the earth.
There was no rain above Lujiabao, but the water vapor was misty and extremely humid outside.
Standing at the high gate tower, looking out, the rainbow rises in the sky.
It was said to be a rainbow, but it did not hang into the sky. It shot towards Lujiabao from the direction of the county town, and it was a hundred feet away from the distance between breathing several times.
