Even though the living environment of the people has changed from scattered villages to more concentrated towns, the status of roadside stores in the world has not been shaken.
After all, the distance between the two towns is still relatively long for ordinary Jianghu people, so naturally they need a place to rest on the way.
A long-lost young figure, holding a black folding fan, followed his memory and came to this long-established wild shop.
After seeing the visitor, the owner of the wild shop who had just finished serving food to another table of guests greeted him warmly:
"Sir, I haven't seen you for a while."
The visitor nodded: "I recently went on a long journey."
"Still the same old rules?"
The shopkeeper did not continue to ask. Because of the long tradition, he naturally knew that the gentleman in front of him was an unparalleled master.
The other party has been eating noodles at their home for a long, long time, and now counting, they have given away many generations of their family's ancestors.
"Two bowls of clear soup and white noodles."
"Okay, come right away!"
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he went to boil the soup and cook the noodles. Ling Jueding found an empty table and sat down, then closed the folding fan in his hand and placed it on the table.
He just came down from the top of Tianshan Mountain, and then went to pay homage to his old friend Jiang Ouzi. Next, he was going to visit the sword world again.
As one of the people with the highest level of swordsmanship in the world, he had naturally experienced that sword duel in the past. He had also been to the sword world that had been transformed after the long-lasting swordsmanship was dissolved, and he had left behind He had also seen that sword.
A generation of sword sect, finally...
There should be no regrets.
But those left behind will regret it for the rest of their lives.
The shopkeeper delivered two bowls of noodles to the table without disturbing them, and turned around to do other things.
"well."
With a sigh, Ling Jueding looked at the two bowls of noodles in front of him, and his thoughts returned to the past unconsciously:
"Master, I'm hungry after mining ironwood rocks all day."
"Let's go."
"It's white noodles in clear soup again."
"Don't you like it?"
"No, my favorite day is eating this bowl of noodles with Master after mining the ironwood rocks."
Disciples, old friends, close friends, and old enemies have all turned into graveyards and been buried in history. He is the only one left in this world.
Reflected in the clear soup is the scene when the two met for the last time:
"Old man, why do you have to go against me everywhere!"
"answer me!"
"The sword determines the life and death of the swordsman. If you take your sword, your life will be in vain."
"I don't believe it. You are simply afraid that my reputation and status will surpass yours in the future. Don't worry, I will repay my kindness and will definitely say that I am your successor."
"Fame and status have nothing to do with the sword. The iron wood rock is used up. It needs to be replenished within three days."
"I refuse. I don't want to listen to your orders anymore."
"Okay, you have already learned all my skills and there is no need to teach them to me."
"Old man, one day I want you to regret it."
After Shao Hong traveled around the world, he defeated and taught countless masters in the world. Later, in order to prove to him, he lent the sword he made to others and waited for a certain period of time before taking it back.
In the end, the prophecy came true. The sword was broken on the top of Tianshan Mountain and everyone died. When they met again, there was only a broken sword, a folding fan, and a body buried deep in the ice.
He did exactly what he said, which made Ling Jueding regretful.
"White soup and white noodles, this is what I want to teach you. Once upon a time, you have changed your tune and are no longer willing to be ordinary."
"You haven't had time to understand that being ordinary is extraordinary."
The past scenes are like a nightmare, lingering, forcing Ling Jueding to withdraw from the world step by step.
Therefore, when I searched for him for a long time, I couldn't find him everywhere.
As a result, the two broke their appointment, and when they met again, they were separated by life and death.
"Um?"
Just as he was remembering the past, an extraordinary energy appeared within his perception, from far to near, and then——
"Two bowls of clear soup and white noodles."
A sharp yet soft Qi, a calm but somewhat confused tone, and a very faint fragrance. As the breeze blows, you can even hear the faint sound of the piano.
Ling Jueding admitted that he had never seen such a "strange" person in all these years.
"Okay, come right away!"
Amid the reception from the shopkeeper, the man sat at the table behind him.
"Kendo is like this bowl of noodles. If you keep improving yourself with the goal of winning, you can reach the top."
"A majestic swordsman can actually eat noodles without paying for it."
"That's because he doesn't charge me every time."
"Ha, I'll treat you to this bowl of noodles this time, how about that?"
"what ever."
Looking at the two bowls of noodles on the table, Lin Chongyang also recalled the past. Unfortunately, his old friend is no longer here.
"Once upon a time, even this bowl of white noodles lost its flavor."
After a while, Ling Jueding, who was about to leave after eating the noodles, heard this sentence.
When the man said this, both bowls of noodles had been finished. Ling Jueding thought that the other party would leave, but unexpectedly, the other party approached the shopkeeper, paid more money, and started to do it himself.
Mixing the dough, kneading the dough, rolling the dough, cutting the dough, boiling the soup and cooking the noodles, all in one go.
Lin Chongyang served himself some noodles again and returned to his seat. However, the noodles were still not satisfactory.
Even if he did it himself, he still wouldn't have the same feeling as when we ate noodles together. This shouldn't be the case. He must have overlooked something just now. Yes, he must have overlooked something. Let's try again.
After thinking about this, just as he was about to get up again, he heard a sentence coming from behind him:
"Ordinary flour, ordinary noodle soup, ordinary techniques, finally made this bowl of ordinary but extraordinary white noodles.
It's not that the noodles have lost their taste, but that your heart has lost its true meaning. "
The sudden words made people stunned on the spot, and their hearts were shaken. The words that came next also revealed the mystery:
“The noodles have not changed from the beginning to the end, they are still the same bowl of noodles. It is because of concentration that they are pure.
If the face is like this, is the person also like this? "
Just as the words fell, Ling Jueding heard the man sigh softly:
“The noodles are just that bowl of noodles from beginning to end, so am I also just me from beginning to end?
I should have understood such a simple truth, I should have understood it long ago. "
He just didn't want to see someone take a detour, but he never expected that the other person's understanding was so amazing and he could understand it with just a few clicks.
However, this is also true. The more talented a person is, the easier it is for him to go to extremes, just like...
well.
Fortunately, the person in front of me has a good character and can look away, which is much better than going to extremes.
Following the sudden enlightenment, Lin Chongyang's whole body Qi also changed at this moment, and his sword intention continued to accumulate and was ready to go.
At the same time, as Lin Chongyang's qi machine twisted and changed, the sky outside the sky was shocked to see the red glow spontaneously emerging, echoing it.
Looking up, what he saw in front of him made Ling Jueding shrink back and feel his scalp numb.
If it is allowed to spread wantonly, life within thousands of miles will probably be wiped out.
Just when Ling Jueding was about to make a move, he saw Lin Chongyang take a step forward, and his body turned into a red rainbow and soared into the sky.
Target--
One water every other day.
