Yantan Mountain.
The famous mountain of the Yan State is known as the "Flower Village Bird Mountain". More than a hundred years ago, the founding emperor of the Yan State received the guidance of an immortal here. Claiming that he had destiny, he rose up and overthrew the tyranny of the previous dynasty.
Later, people were sent to build a Jiyan Tower here. The tower was nine stories high, but the highest floor was never open to the public. Only members of the royal family of the Yan Kingdom were allowed to enter.
Yantan Mountain has beautiful mountains and clear waters, hundreds of birds gather here, and everything is majestic. It is full of vitality.
The villages at the foot of Yantan Mountain are full of birds singing and flowers fragrant, the grain harvest is abundant, the weather is smooth, and the population is prosperous.
All the people of the Yan Kingdom know the name of the Yantan Mountain Pagoda. Even passers-by must take a detour to take a look at this pagoda, which is known as the first pagoda in the Yan Kingdom and is a blessed place where immortals once lived.
Therefore, the most popular tea stalls at the foot of Yantan Mountain are tea stalls.
The tea cover of the tea stall swayed in the wind. The black tea characters were written neatly and without much color. The bamboo shelves were firmly set up and covered with a layer of thatch. There were three or four sets of tables and chairs underneath, all made of simple wood. , maybe there is tea all the year round, but there is a faint fragrance of tea.
At the foot of Yantan Mountain, there is a tea stall every other section of the road. There are always more or less people at each tea stall.
But here, the tea stall with a small Liu character on the tea cover was the least crowded. There was only one table, with an old man and a young man sitting opposite each other.
The old man and the young man were all dressed in Taoist robes. The old man hung a Bagua mirror on his waist and a peach wood hairpin on his head. His face was flabby, but his eyes were very sharp, like a sharp sword hanging on his head.
The boy looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, with his black hair tied up high, dressed as a Taoist boy, his eyes were cold and indifferent, and he was carrying a long strip of cloth on his back. His whole back was tense, and he looked very untouchable. Her appearance was that of a boy or a girl, and she was exceptionally handsome, with red lips and white teeth, which forcibly weakened the fierceness in her eyes.
The old man ordered a pot of tea and a plate of peanuts. His eyes paused on the young man's face, and he tapped his finger on the table, "Calm down."
The young man's face stiffened, he pursed his lips, picked up the tea and took a sip. The bitter taste of the tea made him frown.
The owner of the tea stall came over with a plate of peanuts. He looked at the old man and the young man curiously. He looked up at the sky and said, "It's almost dark today. There is no place to stay in Yantan Mountain." , everyone lives in the inns and villages at the foot of the mountain. Old man, if you have a child, you’d better not go in."
Liu Ji Tea Stall is the tea stall closest to Yantan Mountain. There are few people at this time, because it is almost evening, and within Yantan Mountain, except for the Jiyan Pagoda, there is no building, and there is no human habitation.
It’s not that no one wants to build an inn and temple here, but the royal family of the Yan Kingdom has issued a decree prohibiting people from living on Yantan Mountain. Over the years, except for the trail leading to Jiyan Pagoda, the rest of Yantan Mountain has It has long been desolate and overgrown with all kinds of thorns and shrubs, making it impossible to walk past people.
Even the Jiyan Tower is empty, except for some engraved stone tablets and nothing else.
It was cold in the mountains at night, and it was hard for young and middle-aged people to stay there all night, let alone the young and old.
The owner of the tea stall also had good intentions. There was a smile in the old man's eyes, "Thank you for the reminder, owner. Don't worry. We, the master and the disciple, just went to take a look at the Jiyan Pagoda and meet the so-called Immortal of Yantan Mountain. I'll leave immediately and won't stay any longer."
He didn't know if it was the tea stall owner's misunderstanding, but he just felt that when the old man with a kind smile in front of him mentioned the Immortal of Yantan Mountain, a cold light flashed in his eyes for a moment, which sent a chill down the tea stall owner's spine.
When the owner of the tea stall went to take a closer look, he saw that the old man was still looking warm in the spring breeze. He shook his head. The owner of the tea stall just thought that he might have been cold due to the mountain breeze.
"Old man, it's better to come out earlier. The mountain road is difficult to travel at night. If you really can't stay at my house for one night, it won't be too late to go and have a look tomorrow during the day." The owner of the tea stall was very enthusiastic and gave the two of them a plate of his own. The white sugar cake made by my mother-in-law, "My home is at the foot of the mountain. It can be reached in a few steps. My mother-in-law is good at craftsmanship and the food in the mountains is also fresh. Elderly people may wish to try it."
"No need, we master and disciple still have to go on our way. We should go and have a look earlier and continue on our way earlier."
The old man refused again. The tea stall owner seemed to understand something and immediately patted his head, "Hey, are you worried that I will charge you money? Don't worry, I, Liu Laosi, will let people stay for their stay. Those who never charge money will only have two meals a night. It is convenient for everyone to go out, not to mention, it is so late, no one will go to Yantan Mountain, and it is dangerous to go up the mountain in the dark. "
Liu Ji's tea stall is the closest to Yantan Mountain. Nowadays, everyone is heading out of the mountain. On the contrary, the closer to the foot of the mountain, the more people there are. As the weather turns late, Liu Ji's tea stall is the first to close its stall.
The old man still refused.
Watching the old man and the young man walking up the mountain road to Yantan Mountain, the owner of the tea stall sighed, shook his head, and muttered, "Who is still going up the mountain at this time? Isn't that looking for death?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice sounded behind him.
"Shopkeeper, give us a pot of tea and two cakes."
This sound came from the direction up the mountain, which meant that there were still people going up the mountain.
The owner of the tea stall suddenly froze, turned around and saw that they were still two people, but this time, it was a younger woman and a boy.
The owner of the tea stall glanced at the woman's stunning appearance, but remained indifferent. As if it was just ordinary, he put on his usual smile and said, "Two guests, please take a seat. I'll take a pot of tea and two cakes. I'll be here soon."
It had been more than three months since he left Liguo. Along the way, Lingchu and Li Xianxian did not fly directly to the Sanqing Dao Sect. Instead, they walked or took a car along the way, as if they were sightseeing.
After two years away from the country, Li Xianxian thought that he had seen a lot of things among the people. However, along the way, he realized that his knowledge was really shallow.
Things in this world are really bizarre and diverse.
The reason why I came to this episode of Yanta today is because Master said that her spiritual beast came here to play.
Drinking tea and buying cooking cakes to rest, of course, has nothing to do with Lingchu, it is just taking care of his little apprentice.
When he first decided to live in Liguo for a while, Lingchu sent Qingkong out to travel by himself.
During this year, Qingkong could be said to be running around as he pleased. Lingchu didn't know whether his travels had made any progress, but Qingkong was obviously having a lot of fun. One day he was a hero, and the next he was slaying demons.
A few days ago, Qingkong left a message saying that he had discovered an interesting place and planned to go there to have a look, and this place was the Yantan Mountain in front of him.
It happened that Lingchu and his apprentice also passed by this area, so they simply came over to take a look.
Along the way, he calmed down Qingkong and brought him back to Sanqing Dao Sect.
