Chapter 198 First Hearing of Tai'an

Last time, we talked about how Na Luoyan's apprentice Deli turned out to be the reincarnation of Li Yi's master, the Laughing Lion Arhat. Deli used his own cultivation to convert his senior brother Deguan to repent and reform, helping him escape from the sea of ​​suffering and thus achieve the Vajra Realm. However, due to the damage to his foundation, Deli chose to sit in meditation again and cultivate again. So where will the next story develop? Let's take a look together.

On Poyang Lake, a small boat floated by, accompanied by purple clouds. On the boat, Li Yi held a guitar and sang, while Xia Houying paddled hard, but her face was not tired at all, but full of smiles. Li Yi sang the song "Starry Sky" by Zhou Dong:

Wandering in the blue sky with the wind

A cloud fell in front of me (purple air turned into mist)

Shaped into your shape (Li Yi transformed the mist into the shape of a girl)

Follow me with the wind (pull the cloud in front of you like reeling in a kite string)

Eat away the sorrow bite by bite (inhale the purple air directly into the body with one bite)

Carrying you is like carrying the sunshine. It is sunny wherever I go.

Butterflies Flying Freely (Talent transformed into two butterflies that kept circling around the two of them)

Flowers fill the sky, each one is fragrant because of you

Trying to make the sunset fly, leading you and me around nature

Facing the wind, we start spending every day together

Hand in hand, one step, two steps, three steps, four steps, looking up at the sky

See the stars one, two, three, four

(Li Yi points out four points of light with his hands, and then connects them into a line)

Back to back, silently making a wish

Look at the stars in the distance, can you hear them?

(Li Yi put his hand to his ear to listen, Xia Houying smiled and said, "I heard it!")

Hand in hand, one step, two steps, three steps, four steps, looking up at the sky

See the stars one, two, three, four

Back to back, silently making a wish

Look at the stars in the distance. If you can hear them, they will definitely come true.

Alas, this is our great talent Li. It seems that even if he asks Xia Houying to wash and cook for him every day, she would be willing! Just like now, she is willing to row the boat and let him sing in front. It's really unique!

Poyang Lake is not small, it spans more than 30 miles from east to west! But Li Yi actually let a girl row the boat! Do you think he has shame? Of course, it was actually Xia Houying who proposed it. She wanted to hear Li Yi sing, and the talented Li Yi was willing to sing. Compared with poetry, he prefers singing, after all, this is his strong point.

After singing this song, Li Yi's talent was fully restored. He couldn't bear to let Xia Houying row again. If she continued rowing, she would probably get calluses on her pink and slender hands. How could he bear to let her do that? So he put away his guitar, snatched the oar from Xia Houying's hand, and started rowing.

After paddling for a while, Li Yi couldn't stand it anymore. This was not enough! He suddenly had an idea and took out the measuring ruler, turned it into a pole, and said, "Lengthen!" The measuring ruler quickly extended, and the boat quickly paddled hundreds of feet!

So, these sneaky tricks were all thought up by clever lazy people! If they were more diligent, they would just do it! So laziness is also one of the driving forces of human development!

Now, Li Yi drove the small boat on Poyang Lake in a speed and passion, turning the small boat into a speedboat! In just a quarter of an hour, they saw the big ship they had taken before. Li Yi and Xiahou Ying boarded the big ship, and Xiahou Jie came to meet them.

Xiahou Jie scolded, "Ying'er! You are really fooling around! How could you make the decision on your own and go to such a dangerous place! If it weren't for Master Zhengyuan, you wouldn't have come back alive!" After that, he bowed respectfully to Li Yi and said, "Thank you Master Zhengyuan for protecting my daughter all the way. Xiahou Jie would like to express his gratitude!"

Li Yi and Xia Houying were confused by what he said! Xia Houying asked, "Dad, who told you what?"

Xiahou Jie scolded, "Fairy Yi Ling said that if Master Zhengyuan hadn't protected you, you would have died at the bottom of the lake! With your little ability, you still want to find the measuring ruler! Even your father doesn't know where it is! How can you find it!"

Just as Xia Houying was about to reply, Li Yi suddenly reached out to stop her, because several clan leaders came over at this time, and Li Yi sensed something unusual from one of them.

Xiahou Ying looked at Li Yi with a puzzled look on her face. Li Yi spoke up first, "Patriarch Xiahou, please don't scold your daughter in front of all the other clan leaders. She's grown up now, and she should save some face."

Xiahou Jie looked at the people walking towards him and said, "For Master Zhengyuan's sake, I'll let you go for now. I'll teach you a lesson when we get back!" After saying that, he turned around and greeted several clan leaders.

Xiahou Ying looked at Li Yi in confusion, and the latter whispered, "Something is wrong. Someone from Shura Palace is impersonating the head of the Dang family and sneaking in. Don't let anyone know about the Heavenly Ruler beforehand!"

Hearing this, Xiahou Ying stared at the fake Dang family leader Dang Minghui. Li Yi whispered, "Don't keep staring at him. Just pretend you know nothing. Just be careful."

Xia Houying whispered, "How can we be on guard? A person from Shura Palace pretending to be the head of the Dang family, wouldn't all the people on this ship be in danger? Why don't you just kill him?"

Li Yi replied: "What about Dang Minghui himself? Just ignore it? Besides, I am still unsure of his strength. He dares to appear in front of me so openly. He may be stronger than me! Besides, there are so many people on this ship. Aren't you afraid of hurting innocent people if you act rashly?"

Xia Houying asked doubtfully, "You are so powerful, what are you afraid of?"

Li Yi said unhappily, "Don't you know that there are always people who are better than you? Let's observe the situation first and wait for the right opportunity before we strike!"

At this time, Xiahou Jie pointed at his daughter and said, "It's rare for you all to get together. My daughter happens to be looking for a husband. Why don't you all go to my place to have the wedding banquet and then go home separately?"

Hearing the word "wedding wine", Xia Houying was surprised and said: "Dad! What wedding wine? I don't want to marry Liu Hong! He already has a lover!"

Xiahou Jie frowned and said, "Marry Liu Hong? Who told you to marry Liu Hong? Didn't we agree that you would choose for yourself? The results of the preliminary selection of civil and military officials have come out. Go back and pick the one you like from those eight people!"

Xia Houying stamped her feet and said, "I've already chosen!" As she said that, she pointed at Li Yi, and everyone present dropped their jaws in shock.

Ouyang Zhen, the patriarch of the Ouyang family, asked in confusion: "Brother Xiahou, what does Ying'er mean by this? Did she choose Master Zhengyuan?"

Li Yi immediately stepped forward and waved his hands, saying, "No, no, no, you have misunderstood! My outer disciple Xu Li also participated in the marriage proposal and made it into the top four in the martial arts test. The one chosen by Donor Xiahou should be my disciple."

Xiahou Yu asked in surprise: "Xu Li? The Xu Li who is nearly forty years old and has a beard?" Xiahou Ying looked at Li Yi in shock, and the latter quickly winked at him.

In the awkward moment, Xiahou Jie broke the silence with a smile: "Hahaha, everyone, I just scolded my daughter a few words. This girl was embarrassing me on purpose and was trying to piss me off! Don't worry, just follow me back to Pengze. I'm sure you'll have a good time at this wedding!"

After that, Xiahou Jie took his daughter away, and then the ship set sail back to Pengze County. In Xiahou Jie's room on the ship, Xiahou Ying knelt in front of her father with a reluctant look on her face.

Because the cabin was not soundproof, Xiahou Jie did not dare to speak loudly, fearing that the family scandal would be spread. He whispered, "What do you mean? Do you want to piss me off to death? It's fine if you embarrass me in public, but how can you even save your own face? After all, you are still an unmarried lady, how can you do this!"

Xia Houying said unhappily: "You asked me to choose, and I have chosen now!"

Xiahou Jie slammed the table and was about to start cursing, but after looking around, he lowered his voice and said, "You've been making a fuss for a long time. I promised to let you choose, but what did you choose for me? Xu Li is only a few years younger than Dad! You chose him! Where can I put my old face!"

Xia Houying shook her head and said, "My daughter didn't choose Xu Li!"

Xiahou Jie just breathed a sigh of relief, but heard Xiahou Ying continue to say: "I chose him as my master!"

Xiahou Jie just took a sip of tea and spat it out all at once. He covered his chest and said, "God! Who did you choose?" He lowered his voice again and said, "You chose Master Zhengyuan!"

Xiahou Jie beat his chest and stamped his feet, saying, "Oh my God! You chose a monk! He's not as good as Xu Li! I think you just think your mother and I are too old!"

Xiahou Ying said seriously: "Dad! He is pretending to be a monk! He is..." Xiahou Ying was about to tell the truth when he suddenly remembered that Li Yi asked him to keep it a secret for him. What's more, there was someone from Shura Palace pretending to be Dang Minghui on the boat. If he knew Li Yi's identity, it would be troublesome!

So Xia Houying swallowed her words and said, "Anyway, he is not a real monk, so we can get married! I will choose him, and you can handle the rest!"

Xiahou Jie covered his forehead and lay on the chair, sighing, "Oh my God, what sin did I commit in my previous life! How could I encounter such a thing! Oh God! Please let me go!"

Xiahou Ying said: "Dad, there are some things that I cannot tell you now, but please trust your daughter. I have a good eye! That lecherous monk, no, that right person is very powerful! Look, this is the token of love he gave me!" As she spoke, she raised her hand and showed the eighteen-seed rosary.

Xiahou Jie looked up, then sighed, "Oh, you're just worried about this string of beads? Oh!" Xiahou Jie suddenly stood up, bowed to his daughter and said, "My dear, I beg you, I really beg you, can you let your mother and I live two more years? Can you stop being so petty?"

Xia Houying stood up and said, "Dad, I really didn't act like a spoiled child this time. He is such a nice guy! So, Dad, listen to me and let me sing you a song. This song is what I want to say! I learned this song from him! It's so beautiful!"

Xia Houjie stretched out his hand to hold his daughter and said, "Ah, you are making me so angry that I am dying. You still want to sing?"

Xiahou Ying nodded very seriously, and Xiahou Jie also nodded and said, "Okay, okay, come on, let's not talk for now, let's go back and think about it carefully, calm down! Don't come to see me on the way, wait until you get home and see your mother before talking, otherwise I'm afraid I will beat you to death." As he said that, he pushed Xiahou Ying out of the door.

Xia Houying pushed him and said, "Dad, really! Listen to me sing a song for you!"

Xiahou Jie pushed her to the door and said, "No, let's not sing anymore. If you continue singing, I'm afraid I'll have to call you dad! Let's go, let's go quickly!" After that, he pushed Xiahou Ying out of the room and closed the door.

Xia Houying knocked on the door and said, "Dad, open the door, can you please listen to what I have to say?"

Only Xiahou Jie's voice could be heard from inside the room: "I'm not your father! I don't have a daughter like you!"

At this time, the door to the side opened, and Xiahou Yu pulled Xiahou Ying away, saying as they walked: "Ying'er, your father is very angry right now, please let him calm down, and think about it carefully! Listen to your uncle! Be good! Let's go, let's go!"

Xia Houying reluctantly came to the deck, holding the railing with her chin in her hand, and sighed deeply. At this time, the fake Dang Minghui came to her side, and Xia Houying immediately became nervous and reached out to touch her rosary.

Dang Minghui said with a smile: "Did Ying'er have a quarrel with your father?" Xiahou Ying nodded in response, and he smiled again: "The one you like is actually the monk Zhengyuan, right?"

Xiahou Ying became even more nervous after hearing this. Dang Minghui smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. Uncle is just chatting with you. Speaking of which, the monk Zhengyuan is really good. He is very powerful and practices both Confucianism and Buddhism. He is really amazing. If I had a daughter, I would definitely marry her to him."

Xiahou Ying was a little confused by this, but now she should find a way to get out of this situation. At this time, Li Yi came to the deck, and Xiahou Ying immediately waved and said, "Master Zhengyuan!"
