Chapter 2 Why do ants believe in fate?
After three glasses of sake, Gu Changsheng's whole body felt like it was burning.
Several strands of heat flowed through his limbs and bones, and there was an indescribable joy all over his body. At this moment, everyone and everything in this world seemed to be measured in Gu Changsheng's eyes.
Gu Changsheng just glanced at the whole street, and there were several auras that were extremely refined and as calm as an abyss.
Even the delicate young man next to him has an unrivaled aura hidden in his seemingly thin body.
Are these people the secular immortals mentioned by the storyteller?
But, why can't this weird Taoist in front of me still have any aura, or is he simply an ordinary person?
In an instant, Gu Changsheng's mind was filled with thousands of thoughts.
I saw that the strange Taoist had already taken out a mottled Taoist pen and a piece of Taoist paper that looked ancient from somewhere in his large robe.
This was originally an object used by the little Taoist priests in the Taoist temple to copy scriptures, but now in the hands of this weird Taoist, it seems to be a carrier that carries all the laws and rules of the world.
The strange Taoist holds a mottled Taoist pen in his hand and writes something on the yellowed old Taoist paper with a solemn expression.
For a moment, the Taoist stopped writing, but the Taoist paper trembled violently the moment he finished writing.
Gu Changsheng saw as if a huge force had gathered between heaven and earth, washing away the strange Taoist in front of him and the ancient Taoist paper on the table with great arrogance, as if he wanted to completely erase them from this world.
The strange Taoist sneered, put away his Taoist pen, and with just a wave of his sleeves, the whole world returned to calm. Even the ancient Taoist paper stopped trembling completely and lay quietly in front of Gu Changsheng.
Gu Changsheng couldn't tell what happened in this brief moment, but Young Master Xiu could no longer calm down in his heart at this time.
Just a piece of paper can cause the Tianyun Dynasty to suppress the rules of heaven?
Just a wave of sleeves can quell the vast counterattack by rules?
Gu Changsheng looked at the table. To his surprise, the paper was blank and he could not see anything.
The weird Taoist slapped his forehead: "How could I forget this! It's been a long time since I told mortals their fortunes, so I'm a bit rusty."
Then the weird Taoist gently touched the center of Gu Changsheng's eyebrows, and then Gu Changsheng saw the words on the paper becoming shiny and appearing bit by bit.
It was a poem, and with Gu Changsheng's intellectual background from overhearing it in private school in his early years, he could only vaguely understand it.
"There are only a few decades in this world, and I care about longevity and not money. I say that longevity is a smile, and I will wait for the spring breeze to send the kite."
Gu Changsheng couldn't understand what the last two sentences were saying, but the first two sentences made Gu Changsheng a little convinced by the weird Taoist in front of him.
Gu Changsheng never said his name, but this weird Taoist seemed to know his name from beginning to end.
It's just that I have never been a money-grubbing person, so why would I mention money?
The handsome young master's eyesight was far better than that of Gu Changsheng, and he saw the poem written on the paper at a glance.
When he saw the word "money", his pupils shrank suddenly, and then he immediately regained his composure, with no expression on his delicate face.
Before Gu Changsheng could think too much, his thoughts were interrupted by screams accompanied by the sound of rapid horse hooves.
"You don't have eyes? You see the flag of my Beizawa Dynasty and you still don't give in?!"
Sitting on the leader's horse was a soldier wearing red gold armor and a white tassel helmet.
He used his horse's hooves to drive the people on the street arrogantly, just like driving animals. If something didn't go his way, he would trample them with his horse's hooves.
Soon, the leading soldiers drove out a road that could be used by horses.
Behind him there were several armored soldiers like him. Among the armored soldiers, there were two people wearing white mink velvet. One was old and the other was young. They seemed to have a very noble status among them.
"Why did the Red Gold Army of the Beize Dynasty appear in the territory of the Tianyun Dynasty?"
"Linzhou City has always banned horse riding. Why do those tough guys in the City Lord's Mansion dare not say anything now?"
...
The people around him were talking non-stop, and their words were full of dissatisfaction with the main palace of Linzhou City.
Gu Changsheng's expression was also slightly cold. After living in Linzhou City for so long, he had seen too many such ugly things.
The city lord's palace in Linzhou City has always been very harsh on the people of this city, otherwise he would not have received a few taels of silver from the Shenxian Temple all year round.
To the merchant envoys from Zhuyu and Beize, the soldiers of Linzhou City seemed invisible. No matter what evil deeds they did on the territory of Linzhou City, as long as they did not touch the interests of the powerful people in their city lord's palace, they would
Always turn a blind eye.
"Obvious things!"
Finally someone couldn't help but cursed in a low voice.
But even if the sound was suppressed, it was still very clear in the ears of those soldiers.
I saw the noble prince in white mink velvet with a sword unsheathed on his waist, and the head of a man in simple clothes rising into the sky from somewhere in the crowd.
Blood spurted out like a gush of blood, splashing on the streets of Linzhou City like a rain of blood.
The people around him ran away in fear, leaving only the nameless body slowly falling on the cold bluestone.
"Who dares to judge our Beize Dynasty?"
The noble son of the Beize Dynasty looked at the corpse in front of him with an arrogant expression, without any fluctuation in his eyes, as if he did not kill anyone, but just slaughtered a chicken.
Several voices in the crowd on the street were startled almost at the same time, but a figure suppressed several people in an instant.
It's the old man who is traveling with your noble son.
The noble prince of the Beize Dynasty twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at the crowd in front of him with a sarcastic face.
"The Tianyun Dynasty is full of useless trash like you. No wonder everyone can step on them."
Hearing this, the crowd was in commotion again, but this time no one dared to stand up.
The noble prince pulled the reins of his horse, stopped, took out a piece of cashmere from his arms and wiped the sword in his hand with disgust, as if the blood of a lowly mortal was not worthy of staining his sword.
After putting his sword back into its sheath, the noble prince of the Beizawa Dynasty was about to ride away on horseback, when a clear sound of ridicule reached his ears through the commotion of the crowd.
"I don't know if the Tianyun Dynasty has a lot of waste, but what qualifications does a thing like you that relied on pills have the right to be called here?"
Gu Changsheng looked at the handsome young man next to him in surprise.
After seeing this bastard from the Beize Dynasty casually killing people and the old man's ability to easily suppress a few people, he still dared to stand up and insult this dog-like noble young master. This kind of courage Gu Changsheng thought he didn't have.
Gu Changsheng thought for a moment, then chuckled. That's right. He was just a mortal, so how could he have the courage of these gods and gentlemen?
Once you have been used to seeing these things all your life, you will have to endure them.
The noble son of the Beize Dynasty turned to look at Gu Changsheng with a cold expression.
There was a strange-looking Taoist priest, a poor boy in tattered clothes, and a rather delicate-looking young man.
It seems that he is this handsome young man, but how dare he insult him in public?
And this poor boy, is he smiling?
Even such an ant dares to laugh at himself?
The strange Taoist didn't open his eyes at all. In this tense atmosphere, he still drank the wine from the bowl contentedly.
The old man in white clothes whispered a few words into your ear, as if he knew the origin of this handsome young man in front of you.
After hearing this, the noble son of the Beize Dynasty couldn't help but sneer on his face. He looked at the handsome young man in front of him with a hint of fear but also a hint of disdain.
He rode his horse forward and stood in front of Gu Changsheng.
Sitting on a high horseback, he lowered his head and looked down at the poor boy in front of him.
With natural pride and full of sarcasm, he said:
