Zhang Luoye was looking through the "Zhengyi Alliance Majesty Sutra" in the stone pavilion in the courtyard. The first step in practicing Taoism is to "transform the fetus" to dissolve the fetal energy by expanding knowledge, cultivating the mind and nourishing the nature, and eliminating the turbid air that symbolizes the original sin, thus entering the second step of "entering the body".

In the past two years, under the guidance of Nie Xiaoqian, he has learned a lot of knowledge, from astronomy and geography to the four seasons of farming, and he has not yet broken through this realm of transformation of fetal transformation. According to his feelings, he should be in the middle level of transformation of fetal transformation.

No wonder the Zhengyi Alliance Majesty Sutra has an explanation about the transformation of the fetus: breaking through this step is extremely knowledgeable, so that you can ignore the limitations over the years to break through, and the other is talented, or be assisted by external forces.

Zhang Luoye murmured to himself: "It seems that he can only go to the Imperial College for further study."

The teaching staff of the Imperial College is the highest in a country, and the number of books is also a holy book. His other two skills, "One-Chief Art, the Essence of Taoism" and "Three Days of Justification", have too many difficult points to understand. We must read a large number of Taoist books. These books are impossible to buy outside, but there are some possibilities to find them in the Imperial College library.

Having a scheming in his heart, Zhang Luoye called his servants to send them letters and submit them to the Imperial College.

After receiving the letter, the head of the Imperial College was so scared that his hands were trembling. As Marshal Zhang's grandson, Zhang Luoye had a high status, second only to the emperor's old son, Princess, and the person in charge was busy completing the procedures at the fastest speed in his life and notified Zhang Luoye that he could go to the Imperial College to study at any time.

But what happened next made Zhang Luoye feel a little out of control, so he had to temporarily suppress the affairs of the Imperial College.

This is what happened. After a few days, Marshal Zhang led his troops back in triumphantly. The emperor personally brought all civil and military officials to greet him. He held a banquet in the palace that night to welcome Marshal Zhang.

During the meal, Marshal Zhang frowned. Yes, although he successfully repelled the coalition forces of the barbarian countries, he also suffered heavy losses. A total of one million troops had less than 500,000 left. Anyone who was the commander would be full of blame.

Huangdi comforted Marshal Zhang, saying that Marshal Zhang had experienced many battles and had rich experience, and if he had been replaced by other generals, he might have been wiped out. However, he was also a little worried. Just imagine that people with backward thinking like barbarian countries could actually give Marshal Zhang such heavy damage. The situation is really not optimistic.

The name of General Fen was on the list of those killed. It is said that he was shot through the throat by the barbarians with arrows and died.

Zhang Luoye heard it and found it difficult to calm down. General Fen taught him martial arts, to a certain extent, his master, but now he is separated from yin and yang, which makes him very sad!

When Nie Xiaoqian heard it for the first time, she felt like she was hit by a bolt from the blue. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. Tears kept falling, which made people feel even more heartbreaking than the cloudy and rainy days.

General Fen's wife, Nie, suddenly vomited a large mouthful of blood, which scared Nie Xiaoqian a little busy. Although he was treated in time and his life was not hindered, Nie became increasingly tired and thin. After some days, he died of illness.

Nie Xiaoqian was so sad that she was in a state of indifference. Her mother had already left her. Now even her uncle and aunt were leaving her. The world was so big that she felt helpless for a moment.

Zhang Luoye looked at Nie Xiaoqian's appearance and didn't know what to say, so he had to comfort her a few words. Nie Xiaoqian showed Zhang Luoye a slightly sad smile and expressed his gratitude.

A few days later, Nie Xiaoqian came to Zhang Luoye to say goodbye. Zhang Luoye was reluctant to let go: "Teacher, do you hate me? Please don't leave? Stay here, I will treat you as my sister."

Nie Xiaoqian touched Zhang Luoye's forehead and said lightly: "I don't hate you. I like a child as smart as you. If you have the chance, we will happily explore the world's humanities and geography."

Zhang Luoye asked, "Since you don't hate me, why should you say goodbye and leave?"

Nie Xiaoqian sighed: "I was born in a tragic family. My father was addicted to gambling. If he lost the bet, he could be so cruel to mortgage me and his mother. If it weren't for the help of his uncle and aunt, I would probably live an inhuman life now. I am very grateful to my uncle and aunt. After my mother passed away, I treated them like my parents. If it weren't for them, how could I participate in Wenju and go to the academy to study, let alone come to Your Highness's house and teach Your Highness to read and write."

"It is said that 'a hundred actions are the first.' The Book of Songs also says, 'The father gave birth to me, and the mother gave me a hand, and squeezed me, raised me, took care of me and returned me, and went in and out of the stomach. I wanted to repay the virtues of my mother, and the death of my uncle and aunt made me unable to fulfill my filial piety. This made me very ashamed. The Master said: 'The filial piety now is to be able to raise. As for dogs and horses, they can be raised; why is it different?' Therefore, I have to keep filial piety for my uncle and aunt for three years to be respectful, and also express the regret of filial piety."

Speaking of this, Nie Xiaoqian was already crying.

Zhang Luoye said silently. Filial piety is the responsibility that a son must fulfill. He could not stop Nie Xiaoqian, so he could only whisper: "Teacher... No, Sister Nie, after you have been filial for three years, you can come to me. I would like to treat you as your biological sister."

Nie Xiaoqian laughed and said, "Who wants to be your sister? I don't want you, a smarter brother than me."

Zhang Luoye smiled and said, "That's fine. Three years later, I will come to find Sister Nie and ask you to marry me and be my wife."

Nie Xiaoqian smiled bitterly and shook her head: "You are still young, do you know what a wife is? I'm leaving, you can take good care of yourself."

She turned around, took a few steps, suddenly looked back, her pretty face flushed, and she whispered: "Three years later, if you still remember me and come to find me, I can't consider being your wife."

After saying this, she quickly turned around and ran away, leaving Zhang Luoye laughing happily. He did not know the concept of his wife, but he was fascinated by the feeling of being with Nie Xiaoqian.

After Nie Xiaoqian left, Zhang Luoye sat alone in the courtyard, a little stunned. He would sometimes think of the scenes of General Fen and Nie Xiaoqian. At this time, there was always a faint pain in his heart, just like a poisonous snake biting his whole body, making him feel depressed and had no energy to do anything.

Although my grandfather won the battle, the heavy price he paid made him face the forefront of verbal attacks. Marshal Zhang silently endured it without saying a word. His 500,000 compatriots buried in the battlefield and became lonely ghosts, which made him very painful and blamed.

These days, Zhang Luoye was so frustrated that he sneaked out of the Zhang Mansion and wandered in the streets and alleys of the Imperial City. He watched the traffic around him, various hawkings, street performances, etc., and his depression in his heart slowed down.

When I walked somewhere, I saw someone holding a banner with two sentences written on it. The first sentence was "Zhang Baiyuan, the most skilled military officer, and the barbarians were powerful and powerful overseas"; the second sentence was: "Now, Bai Yuanyin, only the Tang Dynasty used Zhang, who relied on his seniority and was sad for half a million years."

The first sentence of Zhang Baiyuan refers to the three marshals of the past. "Zhang" is Marshal Zhang Lian of the Tang Dynasty and Zhang Luoye's grandfather; "Bai" refers to the White Army Marshal of the Great Zhou Dynasty; "Yuan" refers to the Marshal Yuanyue of the Ming Dynasty.

These three men used wars like gods, and their reputations were far-reaching in the Western Tibetan Kingdom, the northern Rongdi Kingdom, and the southern barbarian countries, which made overseas island countries even more disgusted.

Later, the Bai Bing and Yuan Yue retired, and the younger and more enterprising young people took on the responsibility in the country. In contrast, the Tang Dynasty was still appointing Zhang Lian, a 500,000 soldiers, especially this time, the fight against the barbarian countries, causing 500,000 soldiers to be buried on the battlefield, which attracted people in the Tang Dynasty who opposed Marshal Zhang to jump out and scolded him.

The man holding the banner also said loudly: "In ancient times, General Lian Po was old and weak. You still asked, can you still eat? Now I dare to ask, Zhang Lian is old, can you still eat?"

Zhang Luoye was full of anger when he heard this. He knew something about his grandfather. After Bai Bing and Yuan Yue retired, his grandfather applied to the emperor for retirement, but the emperor believed that the soldiers in China were either inexperienced or arrogant and talked about it on paper, so they did not accept grandfather’s application for retirement.

Although 500,000 soldiers were killed in the battle this time, if it were other soldiers, they would probably have been wiped out. At that time, the barbarian coalition forces of the various countries were at the city, and there would be more than 500,000 casualties?

Just as he was so angry that he wanted to teach the man a lesson, suddenly there was a messy footsteps coming from afar, but a guard general rushed here. The man's face changed slightly, and he didn't even want a banner, so he ran away.

Zhang Luoye clenched his fists and finally sighed. Fortunately, the guards came, otherwise he would teach that person a lesson by anger. If this spread would only cause unnecessary trouble to grandpa.

However, the feeling of depression in his heart that he finally solved was filled with anxiety, and it was like this again, which made him feel a little nervous.

After walking for a while, it was already noon. Zhang Luoye found a noodle shop nearby, ordered a bowl of wonton noodles and ate it. In the afternoon, he continued to wander around the imperial city.

Before I knew it, I walked to the market and suddenly a voice rang in my mind: "Can anyone hear my voice? Can anyone hear my voice? Please save me, great kindness, I will never forget it."

Zhang Luoye was full of doubt when he heard this. He looked around and saw that no one was nearby. Just as he was wondering if he had heard it wrong, the sound rang again.

Zhang Luoye listened for a while and confirmed that he was not wrong. He followed the source of the sound and walked to a stall selling fox fur.

The stall owner is a Northeastern man with a beard and girdle face, a burly figure, and about six feet tall.

He saw Zhang Luoye approaching. Although Zhang Luoye was young, he was dressed gorgeously and had an extraordinary temperament. He knew at a glance that the son of a wealthy family. He hurriedly said with a smile: "Hey, young master, do you want to buy a fox fur? The fox fur here is genuine, and it is definitely not a copy. If you touch it, the fox fur is so warm and the fox fur is so soft."

Zhang Luoye did not make any noise, but instead looked into an iron cage next to the stall owner, where a golden fox was lying weakly on it.

"How do you sell fox fur?" Zhang Luoye asked.

The stall owner raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "One piece costs 500 cents."

"It's too expensive, it's about 200 cents." Zhang Luoye directly called out a price that made the stall owner look bad.

"Young Master, stop joking. These foxes with foxes are all hunted on the mountain at the risk of being attacked by jackals. They worked hard to hunt. 500 cents are the real price." The stall owner said with a smile.

"I see you have ten fox furs here. If you can spend 200 cents each, plus the fox in the iron cage, I'll ask for it all. This is 2 taels of silver. What do you think?" Zhang Luoye took out 2 taels of silver and shook it at the stall owner.

"Okay, the deal is completed." The stall owner gritted his teeth and agreed.

Zhang Luoye smiled, hugged the ten fox furs with his left hand, and left with his right hand. The stall owner was stunned. Not to mention the iron cage, the combined weight of the ten fox furs, no matter how you look at it, it is not something that Zhang Luoye can do with a thin body. Could this young man be born with divine power?

Zhang Luoye walked to an alley and confirmed that no one was nearby. After opening the iron cage and released the golden fox inside. The golden fox looked at him, showing a human-like fear.

Zhang Luoye said lightly: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. I was in the market just now, was you making a call for help?"

The golden fox seemed to be hesitating, and Zhang Luoye said again: "If I want to hurt you, can I talk to you at this moment?"

The golden-retriever fox knelt on the ground like a human, and sent a message saying, "I'm sorry, my son, I'm really scared, so I'm smeared my heart. I doubted the son's life-saving grace, and I hope the son will forgive me."

"Ha, I didn't blame you, why were you caught by that hunter?"

The golden fox whimpered, "That's right. Yesterday, my mother and I saw it clear and came out to bask in the sun. I didn't expect to meet the hunter. He shot my mother to death with one arrow and locked me in an iron cage." As he said, it climbed onto a fox fur, tears flowing.

Zhang Luoye was a little silent. After a while, he sighed: "You go, bring these fox furs and find a place to bury them together."

The golden fox seemed to be a little unbelievable about his ears. He looked at Zhang Luoye with a small eye. After confirming that he was not joking, he asked in a low voice: "Young Master, are you saying true?"

"Of course, let's go quickly. As the descendant of the Taoist Taoist Tao, I should have taken the responsibility of killing demons and eliminating demons as my responsibility, but I saved you, the vixen. This is really not the case. You promised me something. After leaving, you must not hurt others. Otherwise, even if you hide in the ends of the world, I will find you and rectify the Dharma on the spot. Do you understand?" Zhang Luoye said cautiously.

Hearing the words "Tianshi Taoism", the golden-retriever fox's face changed and he nodded cautiously. He didn't know what he did next moment, and a yellow light flashed on the ground. After the light, the golden-retriever fox and the fox fur all disappeared.
