If You Can’t Be a Son-in-law, You Have To Be Sanctified

  Chapter 188 Give birth to a child but not raise it, raise it unfairly, be ruthless

  Nanlao Guogong sat in a small pavilion in the mountain stream, looking at the white-clothed boy in front of him.

  The host Shi Nu is pouring tea for the two.

  The golden flame imprint in Lu Jing's eyebrows was faintly visible, and it exuded surging power, as if imprinting that third-rank banner into Lu Jing's body.

  Lu Jing sat and drank tea, occasionally turning his head to look at the distant scenery.

  The Jokhang Mountain in winter has a special beauty. The green trees and white snow complement each other. It is obviously white but dotted with greenery. This place...is a good place to drink tea and practice meditation.

  The second reason why Lu Jing came to Jokhang Temple was to meet Shi Nu, the abbot of Jokhang Temple, besides visiting Uncle Zhongshan when the New Year was approaching.

  The presiding officer of Shi Nu has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and his white beard and hair move slightly with the breeze.

  Lu Jing came to see him, and the host of Shi Nu happened to be reminiscing with Nanlao Guogong, so there was a scene in the small pavilion.

  Nan Laoguo is not tall, and his face looks a little old, but he wears gold and silver, and he has a luxurious look.

  He looked at Lu Jing in front of him thoughtfully.

   And Lu Jing was looking at the host Shi Nu.

   "Mr. Lu Jing wants to move the dead mother's bones to Jokhang Mountain?"

   There seems to be a unique power contained in the voice of the Shi Nu host, and the voice is pleasant to the ears, which can make people feel at ease.

Lu Jing saluted Shi Nu presiding. The etiquette was quite thoughtful, and he said: "The Taixuan capital is too noisy, and monsters often appear on Jiaoshen Mountain. When my mother was alive, she used to talk to herself under the moonlight, looking for a quiet place. place to bury."

   "Because of this, Lu Jing came here to pay a visit to the host of Shi Nu, hoping to find a quiet place for his mother in the continuous Jokhang Mountain."

  Lu Jing didn't hide anything, and immediately said calmly: "My mother didn't eat fast and worship Buddha when she was alive. If there were such regulations in the Jokhang Temple, Lu Jing would not force it."

  The host Shi Nu shook his head, and handed the tea he made himself to Duke Nan and Lu Jing.

   "The Jokhang Mountain is vast, and it is not owned by the Jokhang Temple. The green hills, flowing water, and even the forests here are just embellishments in this quiet world.

  If Mr. Lu Jing wants to bury his dead mother here, as long as he doesn’t bury her in the gate of the Jokhang Temple, he doesn’t have to come to ask me, he can do whatever he wants. "

  Lu Jing bowed to Shi Nu, and said: "Although the Jokhang Mountain is not owned by the Jokhang Temple, the Jokhang Temple has been taking care of this quiet place for many years.

  The caretaker is not the owner, but he is familiar with this mountain after all. It is also a gift from Lu Jing to ask. "

  A smile appeared on the corner of Shi Nu's mouth, he looked at the Zhu pattern between Lu Jing's eyebrows, and some admiration flashed in his eyes.

   "A little bit of awe-inspiring energy, condensing the wishes of thousands of souls, and merging the remaining power in the third-rank banner, turned into this blessing pattern, I am amazed."

   "To a certain extent, this wish pattern is like a life."

   "Master, can you see through this wish pattern?" Lu Jing thought for a moment and said, "This wish pattern represents the lives of thousands of people. It is Lu Jing's good fortune that they wish Lu Jing with their own thoughts."

  Shi Nu presided over and said: "I have read Buddhist scriptures for a long time, and I happened to see some records. This wish pattern is quite strange, and there are not many people who know it, even in Taixuanjing."

   Lu Jing nodded.

  He came to the Jokhang Temple today, and he was able to meet Lian'e Buddha, and Lian'e just happened to perceive the black mist of suppression in Lu Jing's primordial spirit.

  The black mist came out of the big banner... Lu Jing used the light-supporting sword intent, arrogance, and spring thunder spirit to bring those innocent souls back to clarity, so that they don't have to carry evil and dissipate into the sky.

   This is an opportunity for those souls.

  For Lu Jing, it was a great opportunity.

  The bright green opportunity that Lu Jing obtained from the Thunder Trial of Law should also be here.

  The old man on the side was silent all the time, until this moment his eyes fell on Lu Jing's eyebrows, and he looked down at the two treasures of calling the wind and rain on his waist.

   Watched the time for a few breaths.

  Nan Laoguo finally said: "Lu Jing, you won the three test leaders in front of the palace, and you have a lot of talent, why don't you want to be an official in the court?

  Although you enforce the law and have extraordinary authority, you are still alone after all.

  Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the local Taoist government will not be ordered by you because of the thunder of the law... You are still young, and the speed of your cultivation is amazing, but after all, you cannot rule the world by yourself. "

  Nan Laoguo lowered his eyelids, and seemed a little puzzled.

Lu Jing turned his head, smiled at the old Duke Nan, and said, "Duke, there are countless powers in this world, but if you enter the imperial court and enter the bottomless vortex, you will not have such freedom. .

  Under the thunder of the law, I can still walk the world with a sword, but if I enter the whirlpool, I may only be bound by many rules and not be free. "

  Lu Jing's expression remained the same as before, and so did the way he looked at Old Nan.

Old Nan drank the tea presided over by Shi Nu, and said abruptly: "This is the first conversation between you and me. I thought you had some feelings towards the people in Nan Guo's mansion. resentment.

  I never thought that you would be so calm in front of me. "

  Lu Jing said: "As an ordinary person, it is natural to have greed, hatred and ignorance, how can Lu Jing be free from the vulgar?

   But looking at the road ahead now, the vast majority of people in the Nanguo government are no strangers to Lu Jing. If they are always obsessed with this matter, how can they always improve? "

  When Lu Jing spoke, he didn't dodge his eyes, and looked straight into the eyes of Old Master Nan.

  Nan Laoguo seems to have realized something...

   Only when the weak look up, will they worry about many things.

   And when the strong enough to look at the clouds, it will become much more magnanimous.

  Although Lu Jing is young...but the courage in his heart can already look at the Nanguo government.

  At the same time, Duke Nan also knew why Lu Jing was open-minded.

  The Nanguo government has long been the laughing stock of Xuandu because of the repeated postponement of the marriage contract.

  Now that Lu Jing is doing well, the Nanguo government will be embarrassed.

  Even in the wine shops on the street, many people talked about this past event after dinner.

   Coupled with the friendship between Nan Fengmian and Lu Jing, Nan Guo's government, Lu Jing's current thoughts will come into being.

   "Maybe that's a good thing."

  Nan Laoguo thought of Nan Fengmian in his heart: "Once a strong man with anger rises up, he will always settle the details of the past.

  Now... Lu Jing seems to despise the Nanguo government, and feels that the Nanguo government is a stranger to him, but that's fine. "

  Nan Laoguo was thinking about this, and a gust of cold wind blew... He suddenly couldn't restrain himself, and coughed a few times.

  Old people...with so many worries in their hearts, they will also become timid about many things.

  The former Nanlao Duke was Dafu Juyue, who once went on an envoy to the Sea Demon Kingdom and brought a sea mountain. If he was young and energetic, even if Lu Jing was such an arrogance, he would never have thought of it.

   Now that he is very old, he always thinks about the family business of the Nanguo government, and sometimes he becomes like an old man in an ordinary family.

  But... the big Fu Juyue in front of him is still full of energy and blood. He sits casually in the small pavilion, even though he is not tall, he is like an immovable mountain.

  Looking at Lu Jing casually made Lu Jing's soul tremble a little.

  Lu Jing didn't stay in this kiosk for long, he got the promise from the host of Shinu, said goodbye and left.

   His white clothes fluttered in the cold wind.

   Hosted by Shi Nu, Nan Laoguo looked at Lu Jing's back from afar.

   After a few breaths, Shi Nu presided over a Buddha's name: "When you attain Bodhi, your body is like glass, clear inside and outside, pure and flawless, bright and upright.

  Mr. Lu Jing is able to ignite the Divine Fire of the Great Ming King and cultivate a noble spirit, coupled with Fu Guang Chunlei, if he can... not die, there will be a great atmosphere after all.

  Maybe, as many people have rumored, Dafu will have one more thing to be proud of.

  Nine top nine leaders in the world, there will also be a tenth person. "

  Nan Laoguo remained silent.

  The host of Shi Nu sighed: "Nowadays, the strong men standing across the sky and the earth all walked out of the murder.

  Mr. Lu Jing is very talented, but in my eyes, he is in crisis.

  The seventh prince has the appearance of double pupils, Li Guanlong is taciturn, but there are always thunders in silence, his blood can overwhelm a real dragon, his heart of martial arts is very firm, and his ordinary mind is like steel.

  Lu Jing already had a grudge with the Li family in Xuandu. If Shaozhu Kingdom didn't take action, it would be like a natural disaster. I don't know if Mr. Lu Jing... can get over it. "

  The host of Shinu is merciful and cannot bear to see killings.

  Especially such an outstanding young man, but because of the vortex in Taixuanjing, he has to endure the calamity of killing himself, which made him feel a little more emotional.

  Old Duke Nan's eyelids moved, and he suddenly remembered that his extremely righteous sixth son was very close to Lu Jing.

  If Lu Jing encounters a crisis, with Nan Fengmian's temperament...

  Nan Laogong thinks of the Seventh Prince, and Li Guanlong, but this time... the old duke doesn't think much about it anymore.

   "Since Feng Mian has this idea, let him do it.

  Blindly guessing and blindly calculating will be inferior. "

  “If you take a wrong step, you have to look back, lest you make a wrong second step.”

   It was rare for Lu Chongshan to leave the hut under the Buddha sculpture in the Great Tibet.

  He sent Lu Jing all the way to the gate of Jokhang Temple, where Sheng Zi was waiting for him.

   "I didn't expect that in the blood of my Jiuhu Lu family, there would be a white robe with a sword."

  Lu Chongshan was dressed in Tsing Yi, walking beside Lu Jing: "I occasionally clean the Jokhang Temple on weekdays, and I have heard many pilgrims talking about you.

   A lot has happened and you've been through a lot these past few months.

  I am quite free in this Jokhang Temple. I only read Buddhist scriptures and visit Buddhas every day. You don’t have to come and see me. "

  Lu Jing didn't hide anything, and said, "Uncle, I'm going to Changning Street today."

  Lu Chongshan seemed puzzled.

  Lu Jing said bluntly: "The sage has already agreed to my request... I enforce the law and thunder, I have never been an official in the court, and I have won three trials...

  My mother is a Dafu Yucai, and the court is willing to grant her imperial orders.

   And she is still buried in the tomb in Lu Mansion Taixuan Jingzhong, after all, something is wrong. "

   As Lu Jing said this, many scenes in his mind gradually became clear.

  The mother who is always loving and proud is indeed worthy of lying in the green mountains and green waters.

  If she hadn't been seriously ill and worried about the young Lu Jing, this mother would never have come to Taixuanjing to live under the fence and suffer many humiliations.

"Today..." Lu Chongshan lowered his head to think for a while, then raised his head and said, "The Lu family owes you mother and child, and the children are not raised, and the raising is unfair. Under the big business of the Lu family, they even treat you harshly. Not at home."

   At this point in Lu Chongshan's words, he suddenly stopped in his tracks: "Uncle may not be dead soon, but I would like to apologize to you on behalf of the Jiuhu Lu family."

   "Uncle doesn't have to be like this."

  Lu Jingdao: "I came to Taixuanjing when I was eight years old and entered Jiuhu Lu's family. My uncle is no longer there. I spend all day in this Jokhang Temple. Why do you have to apologize to me on behalf of Jiuhu Lu's family?"

  He looked indifferent, and said: "In my eyes, there are not many people in Jiuhulu's family who can catch my attention.

  But... my mother finally gave birth to me, and finally raised me as a human being. I still remember the harsh treatment of the old lady and Mrs. Zhong, like a frog boiled in warm water...

  Although my mother is a woman who paints boats, she is a woman in Shuyu. She never suffers in daily life. She is served by maids when she goes in and out. "

   "But later, she fell seriously ill and had to find a way out for me.

  She didn't want to depend on others, but in the end she had to go to Lu's residence.

  She doesn't want to be looked down upon by others, but because of the old matriarch and Mrs. Zhong, the maid Tsing Yi in the house never looked at her.

  She hides from many people in the house, but because I like horses, she can go to Mrs. Zhong for me...

  She is a mother. She gave birth to Lu Shenyuan's blood, and she didn't expect anything. She just wanted to find a meal for her child before she died.

   This is the same as the mother in the world, simple and noble.

  Because of that...he didn't deserve to be treated like that. "

   In Lu Jing's mind, scenes about his mother kept reappearing.

  Even though Lu Jing knew in his heart that he was a soul from another world, that stubborn woman had nothing to do with him in essence.

  But... When those scenes kept appearing, Lu Jing couldn't help but think of another world and his relatives there.

   "No matter where the mothers are, most of the time they are very similar."

  Jing Lu took a deep breath, and said to himself in his heart: "I have made an agreement with you, and today... is the time for me to fulfill the agreement."

  —

  Changning Street Shen Xiaobo Mansion!

  Today is a good time, luxurious and extravagant Lu Fu Zhong Jingting households, changing portraits of heavenly officials, posting couplets, nailing peach charms.

  Early in the morning, the servants in the mansion started to get busy.

  They hung up lanterns, unpacked and washed bedding, and cleaned all kinds of utensils.

  The intention is naturally to expel all bad luck, all bad luck, and even many disasters and evil spirits, and pray for good luck in the new year.

   Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhu took their maids and walked through the various courtyards, directing the servants to clean up the house thoroughly.

   Ning Qiang supported Old Matriarch Ning, and Mallow stood behind them, looking at the new look of the ancient pine courtyard from afar.

  As early as more than ten days ago, Lu Jing had already consulted Mr. Eleven for a prescription for Ning Qiang.

  The prescription was full of common medicines, which didn't seem so surprising, but because of this prescription, Ning Qiang's complexion actually improved a lot, and a little blush appeared on her originally pale complexion.

  It's just that Ning Qiang today is a little out of her mind, looking at the gate of Guangu Songyuan frequently, with some worries and contradictions in her eyes.

  Old Madam Ning looked at the ancient pine tree bestowed by the Crown Princess in the ancient pine garden, with a smile on his face: "Maybe it's because of the ancient pine tree, my Lu residence is getting better and better.

  This year, the Grand Master returned to the mansion, and there were rumors in the court that the Holy King would reuse him, and the business in Jiangnan also showed signs of recovery. Compared with the past few years, it is really much better. "

   While she was talking, Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhu, who ordered the servants to sweep the courtyard, brought their maidservants and the rest of the wives of the Second Mansion to the Guangusong Courtyard.

  Mrs. Zhong had a smile in her eyes, and she said to Mrs. Ning: "As the saying goes, in the old town of Zhongfu, the old lady is the Taishan Mountain of the Lu Mansion. With you, the lucky stars will naturally shine on the lintel of the Lu Mansion."

   Mrs. Zhong is talking here.

  Madam Zhu of the Second Mansion lowered her head, her interest was not high.

  Dafu Shen Xiaobo has returned, and Lu Qiong is also at home.

   But in Mrs. Zhu's courtyard in the second mansion, Lu Feng had already gone to the border, and there was no news. A few days ago, he went to the Jokhang Temple to invite Master Chongshan several times, but Master Chongshan was unwilling to return to the mansion.

  For Mrs. Zhu, this New Year's Eve is even more deserted than previous years.

   "My Lu Mansion is getting better and better."

Mrs. Ning was leaning on a deer-shouldered cane, and the luxury of the Lu Mansion could be seen wherever she looked. She sighed like this, and then thought of something, and said with a cold snort, "A few days ago, Taixuanjing ordered his wife to enter the palace together. Palace, to meet the empress.

   Afterwards, I had a banquet, and some of the officials in the courtyard with me even laughed at my Lu family with that Lu scene, which I overheard. "

  Mr. Ning has been brooding over this matter for the past few days.

  Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Zhu lowered their heads, just listening carefully.

  After Mrs. Ning returned from the palace, she was extremely annoyed and kept talking about this matter for several days.

  The imperial wives in the palace, when they were whispering to each other, they even bluntly said that the Lu family is unfortunate, the head of the family is absent, the old lady is old and stupid, and Mrs. Zhong does not cultivate the virtues of the family.

  Because of this, the unicorns who descended from the sky have no virtue to accept them, so they want to drive them out of the house.

And now... Lu Jing has become famous in Taixuanjing, not only Mr. Shulou, but also said to be a Primordial Spirit cultivator in the realm of Shenhuo. right of law...

  There are countless big houses in Taixuanjing who coveted Lu Jing to the extreme. Those wives said that if such an outstanding child came out of their family, they would have to go to Jokhang Temple and Dongwang Guanzhong to fulfill their vows.

   After all, in this great ambush, if one person ascends to the sky, the whole family will take off because of it.

   "The Lu mansion has grown wings, but they were broken by the stupid people in the mansion, which is especially ridiculous."

  "The old man is stupid, and the woman in charge of the house is short-sighted. It is not surprising that such a thing happened."

   "The most ridiculous thing is that paper formula. Qilinzi suffered a disaster, and the Lu family was busy clearing up the relationship. He was ungrateful and ungrateful. Now it's better..."

  …

   Those words that day are still echoing in Old Madam Ning's mind.

  When Granny Ning thought about it, she became very angry.

  Mrs. Zhong beside her was as graceful and dignified as before, but her eyes were also filled with anger.

  Old Madam Ning tapped on his crutches: "It's still early, Taixuan Jingzhong said that Lu Jing is the son of a unicorn, and his leaving the Lu House is a loss to my Lu House.

   But I feel... that we chased him away, thanks to the blessing of the ancient pine, and our good fortune.

  He offended the Shaozhu Kingdom and killed the third son of the Li family. Then the third son of the Li family is also the counselor of the seventh prince. How can he be good in the future? "

  Old Madam Ning snorted coldly: "Let's just live our happy life and take a good look at whether the so-called young leader can put on wings and fly into the sky."

  Under the large crowd, Mrs. Zhong did not show any anger in her heart, but she just smiled softly at the old matriarch Ning: "The old matriarch must not be so angry.

  This Lu Jing... has nothing to do with the Lu family now, but it doesn't make such an ugly mess.

  I have sent someone to repair his mother’s tomb, which is also a kindness from my Lu family..."

  Mrs. Zhong is talking.

  In the distance, a young boy in Tsing Yi came to report in a hurry.

  Old Madam Ning, Mrs. Zhong, Mrs. Zhu, Ning Qiang...the expression suddenly changed.

  Old Madam Ning snorted coldly: "Now that Princess Chong'an is gone, why is Lu Jing coming to my Lu Mansion again?"
