Chapter 283 Departure to Chaoge
So Luo Shu took a deep breath, gathered his thoughts, bowed to Zhao Gongming again, and said:
"Thank you for your concern, I will remember it in my heart."
Zhao Gongming waved his hand, indicating that Luo Shu did not need to be polite, and then he said:
"My nephew just said that, except for Jade Ding Zhenren, you met the other two?"
Luo Shu looked at Zhao Gongming, nodded, and continued:
"Yes, after Junior Brother dealt with Master Puxian at Qinglong Pass, he rushed to Sishui Pass."
"I met Manjusri Bodhisattva at Sishui Pass. As expected, my nephew had another fight with him."
"Manjusri Bodhisattva is also dead?"
Zhao Gongming's voice was full of disbelief and shock, as if he had heard the most incredible news in the world.
His furrowed brows revealed his inner anxiety and worry.
Seeing this, Luo Shu's mouth twitched involuntarily, then he shook his head slightly and said slowly in a helpless yet relieved tone:
"Uncle Master, you are worrying too much. I only gave him a light punishment and beat him away. I didn't kill him."
Zhao Gongming's tense nerves finally relaxed after hearing this. He took a long breath and sighed:
"It's not bad, it's not bad. If you really put Manjusri Bodhisattva to death, I'm afraid that my second uncle Yuanshi Bodhisattva would not be able to hold back and would personally take action. By then, the situation would be even more difficult to deal with."
Luo Shu looked at Zhao Gongming's thankful tone and thought to himself:
"If it weren't for the fear of forcing Yuanshi Tianzun into a corner, he would have left more than just Manjusri Guangfa Tianzun, and at most two of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect for him."
"You know, after the Conferred God Tribulation in the previous life, there was only one core disciple of Jiejiao, the Holy Mother Wu Dang, left. The rest died or turned into barbarians. How can the word 'miserable' describe it?"
After thinking for a moment, Luo Shu gently smoothed the wrinkles on his robe, turned his gaze to Zhao Gongming, and asked:
"Uncle, I didn't have time to ask Yang Jian and the others just now. I wonder how the battle situation is going at Jiameng Pass?"
When Zhao Gongming heard this, the relaxed look on his face faded slightly, replaced by a look of deep thought.
After a moment, he spoke slowly, with a hint of briskness in his voice:
"Jiameng Pass is naturally fine. Although I fought with Jade Ding Zhenren, I won."
"However, before the fight, I made a bet with him."
"If he wins, I will leave Jiameng Pass immediately. If he loses, he will leave Jiameng Pass immediately and will not pursue the matter of Yang Jian killing his apprentice."
Hearing this, Luo Shu couldn't help but frown slightly, and a hint of doubt and confusion flashed in his eyes.
He tilted his head slightly, looked directly at Zhao Gongming, and spoke with a serious and resolute tone:
"Uncle Master, Qingmu, the disciple of Jade Ding Zhenren, committed suicide. What does this have to do with Yang Jian?"
Zhao Gongming heard this, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and his helplessness was evident in his words:
"I just talked to Jade Ding Zhenren and told him that Yang Jian did not kill his disciple, but committed suicide."
"However, Jade Ding Zhenren seemed to be blinded by anger. He half believed and half doubted my words, and even thought that I was trying to excuse Yang Jian."
At this point, Zhao Gongming sighed softly and continued:
"I also understand that the pain of losing a disciple is not trivial. It is natural for Master Yu Ding to find it difficult to accept it for a while. But it is not wise to vent your anger on innocent people."
Hearing this, Luo Shu nodded and said helplessly:
"Forget it, it doesn't matter. Yang Jian is upright and honest, so he is not afraid of being slandered."
Changing the subject, Luo Shu looked at Zhao Gongming and continued:
"Uncle Master, nothing should happen at Jiameng Pass for the time being. Do you want to stay here? Or go back to Luofu Cave in Mount Emei first?"
Zhao Gongming heard this, pondered for a moment, and said slowly:
"I will stay in Jiameng Pass for a while. If nothing happens, I will go back to Mount Emei."
"Okay, thank you for your help, uncle!"
Before he finished speaking, Luo Shu bowed towards Zhao Gongming and said respectfully.
Zhao Gongming waved his hand gently, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said bluntly:
"My nephew, why should we be so polite? Since you have important business to attend to in Chaoge, go and make arrangements as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Luo Shu felt a warm feeling in his heart. He nodded slightly, his eyes flashing with gratitude and respect.
Then, he bowed deeply to Zhao Gongming again and said respectfully:
"Yes, I won't bother you any more."
Seeing this, Zhao Gongming laughed, took a few steps forward, patted Luo Shu's shoulder gently, and said bluntly:
"Okay, okay, go quickly, don't miss the time."
After saying this, Luo Shu said yes and slowly left Zhao Gongming's room.
……
After a while, Luo Shu returned to the hall of the general's mansion.
At this time, Yuan Hong and others were chatting. When they saw Master Luo Shu coming back, they hurriedly surrounded him.
"Master, I have just told my fellow disciples about my trip to Chaoge. They also want to follow you, Master, to Chaoge." Yuan Hong stepped forward and said.
Hearing this, Luo Shu gently glanced at the group of vigorous disciples in front of him, with a hint of teasing and kindness in his tone:
"It seems that you little guys don't want to go back to Yufu Mountain to continue your boring training. Why do you all want to run away? Do you want to go to Chaoge to play?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the disciples looked at each other and laughed, with a hint of embarrassment and shyness passing across their faces.
But then they straightened their backs, with a more determined light flashing in their eyes.
"Master, how can we say that we are going to Chaoge to have fun? It is obviously to combine work and rest. A proper combination of work and rest is also important for improving cultivation." Nezha stepped forward and said sincerely.
The others also nodded, echoing Nezha's words.
Luo Shu looked at the group of energetic and dream-filled disciples in front of him, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He shook his head gently, a gentle and slightly doting smile on his lips.
"Okay, you little guys, stop talking nonsense."
Luo Shu's words were full of love and indulgence for his disciples, "Master knows what you are thinking and understands your ideas."
"However, now is not the time to chat. We must hurry up and prepare and set off to Chaoge as soon as possible."
He paused, his eyes fell on Yang Jian, and continued:
"By the way, Yang Jian, go tell the general of Jiameng Pass that your master wants to take you to Chaoge."
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian immediately bowed to Luo Shu and said in a firm and powerful voice:
"Yes, Master."
After saying that, he flashed and flew towards the military camp.
On this side, Luo Shu urged Yuan Hong and others to pack up and prepare to set off.
After a long time, when everything was packed up, Luo Shu took Yuan Hong and others to Chaoge City.
