Although it was not Dongfang Sheng's first time seeing Mount Tai, when he came to the foot of Mount Tai and looked up, he saw that the mountain was majestic and extraordinary. He could not help but feel a surge of excitement and worship in his chest. He could not help but recite Du Fu's poem that had been passed down for thousands of years:
Dai Zongfu how, Qilu green not yet, good luck bell god show, Yin and Yang cut the division of the clear.
Swinging his chest, he gave birth to layers of clouds, opened his eyes and entered the bird's nest. When he reached the top of the mountain, he saw that the mountains were small.
Zi, who had never been to the Central Plains before, was naturally shocked by Dong Yue's boldness. "Master, big brother, shall we go to the top of the mountain?”Ah Zi grew up in the Sea of Constellations, and there were grasslands everywhere. At this moment, she naturally wanted to experience the feeling of being able to stand on top of the world.
Dongfang Sheng shook his head." I have to go somewhere. I'm afraid it's too late."”He was naturally referring to the Shan family of Tai An. However, he did not want to save Shan Zheng's family. After all, the iron-masked Shan family did not have any friendship with him. He was only going to wait for Qiao Feng and A'Zhu near the Shan family. Furthermore, Dongfang Sheng did not like climbing mountains. In his previous life, he often saw reports on who had conquered Mount Everest or other peaks in the media. Every time this happened, he would smile bitterly and shake his head, lamenting the overconfidence and arrogance of humans. God Peak had only generously lifted her veil to others, but they thought that they had defeated her. Dongfang Sheng felt that these mountains were great and sacred. He only wanted to look up at them from the side and did not want to offend them.
After interrupting the strange thoughts in his mind, Dongfang Sheng pulled Zi back to the carriage. Since they had arrived at Mount Tai, they were not far from Tai An. Zi wasn't able to get what she wanted and was a little unhappy. She complained in a low voice," I've never seen such a tall mountain before…"
Dongfang Sheng was amused by her reaction and asked,""What does the Sea of Constellations look like?”Actually, he really didn't know where the Sea of Constellations was. "Could it really be an ocean?" Dongfang Sheng asked while feeling puzzled. If it really looked like the sea, could it be Lake Baikal?
Zi laughed and said,""So big brother also has something that he doesn't know.”As a person from the 21st century, Dongfang Sheng's knowledge was probably unparalleled at that time. Therefore, in Ah Zi's eyes, he seemed to know everything. After Zi finished laughing, she looked out of the window and reminisced,"" There are thousands of lakes within a hundred miles. When the moon is high in the sky, the light on the surface of the lake is like the stars in the night sky. That's why it's called the Sea of Constellations…"
As Dongfang Sheng listened, he imagined the dazzling scene of the Sea of Constellations in his mind. He could not help but be fascinated. The usually lively Ah Zi seemed to have recalled her days in the Sea of Constellations and fell silent. Just as the two of them were lost in their thoughts, the old man outside the car said,"Young Master, Tai 'an City is just ahead. Do you want to enter the city?"
Only then did Dongfang Sheng come back to his senses. Pulling Zi out of the car, he said to the old man,""Uncle, it's been a long journey." After saying that he had to pay for the fare, the old man from Tai An only needed two strings of money. Dongfang Sheng had always been generous, so he took out a dozen silver pieces and handed them to the old man. He turned around and entered the city with Zi.
Dongfang Sheng did not know where the residence of the iron-masked Shan family was. However, when he thought of the possible tragedy that might happen to the Shan family, Dongfang Sheng did not want to ask anyone to avoid suspicion. Fortunately, Tai 'an City was not very big. Dongfang Sheng thought to himself that if he walked through the entire city, he would definitely find it.
Zi felt a little strange. Her master had said that he had an important place to go, but now he seemed to be strolling around the city. However, Dongfang Sheng was indeed a little mysterious at times. Zi was not surprised and just followed him around the city.
To Dongfang Sheng's surprise, he walked around Tai 'an City and strolled through all the streets, but he did not see the shadow of Shan Manor. After nearly half a day, Zi began to complain. Dongfang Sheng had no choice but to find a place to rest first. Although he couldn't find it, he wasn't in a hurry. After all, the life and death of Dan Zheng's family had nothing to do with him. It wasn't that Dongfang Sheng didn't want to save him. Although he felt that Xiao Yuanshan was indeed a little ruthless when he killed all the members of the Shan family, the grudge between Xiao Yuanshan and the martial arts world of the Central Plains was not so easy to explain. Although the entire Shan family was innocent, Xiao Yuanshan's clansmen and wife outside Yanmen Pass were also innocent. An eye for an eye, I hope.
Zi couldn't help but ask,""Big brother master, you've been wandering around the city for half a day. What are you looking for?”
"I'm looking for a family," Dongfang Sheng shrugged. I only know that this family lives in Tai 'an, but I don't know where exactly in the city.”
Zi almost fainted when she heard that. Dongfang Sheng chuckled and said,""Why don't we find a restaurant first and ask around while eating?”Zi couldn't say anything. She could only shake her head. She thought to herself," This master is really smart. He's always muddle-headed. He only thought of such a simple solution now." Of course, she didn't know what would happen in the future, nor did she understand Dongfang Sheng's thoughts.
The two of them chose a shop with an impressive entrance and walked in. The waiter in the shop had already come over and greeted him warmly. Dongfang Sheng had just sat down and hadn't even ordered when he heard a soft discussion at the table next to him.
"It must be a vendetta in the martial world. Otherwise, everyone in the Shan family has martial arts skills. How could no one escape?" One of them said.
Dongfang Sheng was shocked when he heard the word 'Shan family'. The Shan family has been destroyed?" He was not surprised that something had happened to the Shan family, but he did not expect Xiao Yuanshan to have already taken action. He was a step too late. He must have met Zi and was delayed along the way.
The waiter heard Dongfang Sheng's surprised expression and then heard him muttering to himself,""You also know the Shan family?"
Dongfang Sheng came back to his senses and said,"The iron-masked Shan family is quite famous in the martial arts world. How could they be annihilated?" I wonder when it happened?"
"Yes, it was yesterday." Yesterday, his father was doing some work in the east of the city when he saw the Shan family on fire, so he went over to take a look. Dozens of people from the Shan family were all burned to death in the fire. It was said that it wasn't like walking in the water, but someone had done it. He even heard people in the martial arts world say that it was Qiao Feng's doing. And…" At this point, she kept him in suspense.
Zi knew that Dongfang Sheng must be looking for this "Shan family". When she heard the waiter stop halfway, she said angrily,"Don't stutter. If you have something to say, say it quickly. Otherwise, this lady will teach you a lesson.”As he spoke, he reached into his sleeve.
"Don't mess around." Dongfang Sheng reached out his hand to stop Zi. He took out a piece of silver and placed it in the waiter's hand."It's not easy for Second Brother to make a living.”
The waiter weighed the silver and found that it was more than one tael. He immediately beamed and said,"This master is really a reasonable person." He stuffed the silver into his pocket and said mysteriously,"Yesterday, someone saw two men riding horses beside the fire and pointing at the fire. I'm afraid they're not good people. Someone was scolding Qiao Feng by the roadside, but one of them kicked him with a horse. He must be Qiao Feng's accomplice."
Dongfang Sheng thought to himself that these two people must be Qiao Feng and A'Zhu. He didn't want to miss this opportunity again and sighed. After the waiter left, Zi said hatefully,""'This master is really a reasonable person'? So you're saying that I'm unreasonable? If it wasn't for Master and Big Brother protecting me, I would have made that waiter's mouth rot. Humph! You actually came to extort our silver. Although silver is good, there are times when it's hot.”
"This waiter is just trying to feed his family," Dongfang Sheng said."Zi, you can't be too harsh on people.”
"Master, the family you're looking for is gone now," Zi asked. What should we do now?"
" I'm not looking for the Shan Family." Dongfang Sheng shook his head." I just know that Big Brother Qiao will definitely appear in the Shan Family." But now that things had changed, he could only meet Big Brother Qiao elsewhere.”In fact, Dongfang Sheng wanted to prevent the tragedy between A'Zhu and Qiao Feng from happening. If he knew where the "Little Mirror Lake" was, he would not have to run around and would have just waited there for the two of them. However, the "Little Mirror Lake" was not very famous, and Dongfang Sheng did not remember the location of the Little Mirror Lake in the book, so he had no choice but to find Qiao Feng and A'Zhu first.
"Could it be that Big Brother knows how to calculate?" Ah Zi asked curiously. Can you know the past and the future?"
Dongfang Sheng smiled when he heard that. Although he couldn't calculate, it wasn't wrong to say that he could know the past and the future.
Luoyang Beggar's Sect.
A disciple ran into the hall and reported,""Elders, the Great Benevolence Chapter has sent another messenger pigeon.”
"The Great Benevolence Chapter?" Elder Song was puzzled. Could it be about the Shan family again?"
Elder Chen took the note and read it. His expression changed slightly. He handed the note to Bai Shijing and said,"A messenger pigeon came to report that Dongfang Sheng appeared in Tai 'an City the day after the Shan family's accident.”
"What?" Everyone in the hall was shocked.
Elder Song snorted coldly." It's Dongfang Sheng again. Last time when Elder Xu was in trouble, he was sneaking around Wei Hui." This time, it was the Shan family. If it was a coincidence, how could they meet each other every time?”
"This Dongfang Sheng is definitely not simple." Elder Wu frowned. Even if he wasn't the one who did these two things, they must have something to do with him. Could it be that this person had predicted that something would happen to Elder Xu and the Shan family?”
" It would be fine if Dongfang Sheng didn't do it," Elder Chen said." But if he did it, this person is even more terrifying than Qiao Feng." Although Qiao Feng was powerful, he wasn't like someone who killed people without any evidence. However, it would be far-fetched to accuse Dongfang Sheng of being the murderer just because he appeared in these two places.”Although he said so, he also felt that Dongfang Sheng was highly suspicious.
"Then what about the matter of Chapter Leader Quan?" Elder Song said angrily.”Ever since Quan Guanqing went to look for Dongfang Sheng, there had been no news of him. No one even knew if he was dead or alive. He had become another mystery in Beggar's Sect.
Elder Chen pondered for a moment before suddenly standing up and slamming the table."Order the Beggar's Sect disciples to follow Dongfang Sheng and report back every day.”
