Wu Shuang's plan was finally put aside after the old Taoist praised the young man's skill in grilling fish.
It’s okay that the lunch was not finished. What made Wu Shuang angry the most was that the old man didn’t leave until the young man grilled five plump fish until they were shiny. Have eaten fish. The young man was quite embarrassed for a moment, but then he thought about how the old master borrowed his sword to save the siege, so he handed over two skewers of the most perfectly grilled fish, not even noticing that the master's expression on the side gradually turned gloomy.
Taoism is no better than Buddhism. Although there are many rules that cannot be completely eliminated, there is not much emphasis on oral and physical worship. The difference from Buddhism is that Taoist priests can marry and have children. Except during fasting, they are not prohibited from eating meat and wine, and there are only a few taboos. The four most taboo foods are cattle, dogs, mullet, and wild goose. The reason is that most cattle and dogs are familiar with human nature, and cattle have the feeling of licking their calves, and dogs have the heart not to mind the family's poverty. The mullet is blind when it gives birth, and the young fish will The geese feed their mothers with food, and the geese die together. After losing their spouses, they often mourn for three days, and they go to the underworld together with the dead geese.
In the past, the ancestors of the Taoist sect chose these four types of birds and beasts as taboos, in order to tell the people of the Taoist sect in the world to always remember their true intentions and not to be inferior to animals. After the thunder and fire war, many Taoist books and books have been lost and damaged, and this taboo rule has been passed down for thousands of years.
The old Taoist turned around and stuffed a skewer of grilled fish into the hands of the Taoist boy, then he tore off pieces of fish meat and ate it so hard that his white beard was stained with a lot of oil. Wu Dajianxian felt depressed in his heart, so he just ate and ate, why did he slap his mouth at me? Since he was deliberately fighting, Wu Shuang also took the fish from the young man's hand, and without caring about his appearance, he also nuzzled Li Baoyu.
The Taoist boy was stunned, silently stood up from the old Taoist side, walked to Yun Zhong, sat down, and slowly ate the fish.
"I want to find another master."
Yun Zhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He patted the Taoist boy on the shoulder and whispered: "Just get used to it." Surrounded by green plants, the two apprentices looked at the two masters and suddenly realized that the world did not seem to be all white clothes and snow.
The two masters glared at each other and competed to eat the grilled fish. Wu Shuang was a little faster and finished the meal one step ahead of the old Taoist. He looked at the old Taoist with victorious eyes, which was really annoying.
The old Taoist didn't say much more, took the Taoist boy with him, stepped on the fly whisk, and headed towards the mountain. After a while, he disappeared without a trace.
"Boy, I just looked at you to tell you not to give him fish, why didn't you pay attention?" Before the young man could recover, Wu Shuang asked first, with a rather unkind look on his face. Yun Zhong had a look of helplessness on his face, and not to mention other things, he came to the rescue with his old skills, which was a sign of great kindness. But for some reason, the master, who usually dealt with others in a friendly manner, was willing to compete with this veteran, and his words seemed to be full of resentment.
"That's all, I'll tell you all the hidden details in the future."
Wu Shuang touched his stomach and said, "It seems I'm still a little hungry. I'll talk about it later and let's go."
After this delay, rain began to pour from the sky, and soon clouds filled the sky. The sudden rain was so violent that the two of them almost got wet on the road. Master and disciple looked at each other, both of them saw the meaning in each other's eyes, so they wiped their heads and ran away.
Amidst the strong wind and thunder, not far from the pressure cage forest, there was this hilarious and strange scene:
Under the power of Thunder Shuo Shuo, the master and the apprentice scurried around, fearing that the rain would wet their clothes and they would have no clothes to change.
Fortunately, the young man had just made a trip back and forth to take away the salt ingredients for grilled fish and brought the carriage over a little. Now they are not far away. Before the raindrops fell, the two stepped into the carriage first and counted the soft rain by the sound of rain outside the window.
In fact, no one would come to this wilderness to steal. It's just that these two masters and apprentices who traveled around the world can't be said to be rich. They just count the things for peace of mind. After the two of them took stock, neither of them wanted to move. Wu Shuang asked the young man to drive the carriage to the forest to take shelter from the rain, and then leaned on the carriage seat, feeling a little sleepy.
In the haze, there was the sound of rolling thunder.
This fish was eaten so fast that I almost didn’t taste it. He also had to eat his losses quickly. Li Laodao would not stop Wu Shuang from doing what he was doing within a year, let alone take advantage of the loopholes to cause trouble for the poor teacher.
Everyone in the Xian family knows that Li Baoyu's character is as clear as the moonlight shining through the clear water between the pines.
"If I learn how to control a sword in the future, I will not be afraid of the approaching rain. I will step on the sword and walk away. I will be in a warm bed in an instant. That will be so comfortable." I don't know why Yun Zhong suddenly said this. , seeming to be complaining about the unpredictable rain that came out of nowhere and wetted my clothes several times.
Wu Shuang, who was tired, frowned slightly, "According to what you said, if you wait until you reach an unprecedented state of cultivation, you will still be unable to contain all the wind and rain in the sky. If you want to make it fall, let it fall; if you want to make it, then let it fall. , indeed a young man with heroic spirit.”
"wrong."
In Yun Zhong's heart, the Juebian Immortal must have escaped from the earthly world. Since he has a sword in his hand, why bother to suffer from such troubles as rain and wind, let alone running around for a few buckets of rice. The heroic and domineering attitude of holding the world in his hands is certainly fascinating, but what he said was just to use his sword to avoid the rain, so what's wrong with that? Master's words were too sarcastic, so I felt a little angry.
"In ancient times, there was a dog in Nanli. Its head was as big as a giant bucket, and its body was as black as ink, without any stray hairs. Fire broke out wherever the black dog passed, and its whole body was also hot and blazing. Water and rain could not get close to it."
"There was an immortal who suppressed it, and the people were harmed by the fire. They all asked the immortal to kill the black dog to avoid future troubles. The immortal had great merits and was most kind-hearted, but he was forced by the rumors in the world and finally He decided to take action to kill the black dog. The black dog had long been psychic and could speak human words, so the immortal asked him to speak out his unfinished wishes before he died. This would also give him a little peace of mind."
Wu Shuang spoke leisurely and rested his head on his arms, "Xiaosi, you might as well guess what the black dog wants."
"Have a good time in the rain."
"So the compassionate immortal used the heavy rain as a sword and buried it in it."
"Other people think that the greatest immortality is to escape from the world of mortals and be untainted by the world. But if you really reach the state of controlling the world and have no emotions or desires, you won't even have the slightest chance of getting soaked in the heavy rain. , is that still a human being? He is not a human being, how can he pretend to be an immortal?"
"In the same way, a great chivalrous person, you only see him drawing his sword and drinking from a big bowl, and then he brushes off his clothes. Therefore, talking about this picture album is very harmful. There are countless people in the world who are beaten by the shopkeepers because they can't drink a bowl of rice wine. After being thrown out of the house, who knows whether this down-and-out knight has ever saved the common people from suffering."
"If you are exposed to the rain, your mind will be clear and your soul will be crystal clear. Why bother pretending to be a virtuous person, which will make you feel upset? Do you know any immortal who never had a wet bed when he was a child?"
It's raining heavily, but the young man's heart clears the clouds and sees the sun.
