It's sunny after the rain, and the clouds in the sky high above your head are like mountains and rivers. In the small spring pond of the Song Mansion where the spring water was rising, Yu Nian sat on the ground, looking down at the thin ripples around him. Looking at the warm spring scenery in front of him, he couldn't help but start to have trances, and the scene from last night reappeared in his mind. In the past two days, weird things have happened in the Song Mansion. Whether it was the mirror demon, the woman in green clothes who could compete with the Immortal of Sifang Mountain, or the one who used only a talisman to destroy the mirror demon physically and mentally. As a young girl, I have been filled with many emotions for the past few years, and I unconsciously remembered the words of an old Taoist priest: "A mayfly is sent to heaven and earth, a drop in the vast ocean. Although heaven and earth are located above your head and below your feet, you can't travel thousands of miles and still don't know how wide it is."
While Yu Nian was half asleep and half awake, he suddenly heard someone calling him softly from beside him: "Brother Yu, Member Song has prepared a breakfast banquet and is waiting for you now!"
Hearing this gentle question, he turned around and looked around, only to find that the speaker was none other than Yang Qing. Only then did Yu Nian wake up from a dream, retracting his thoughts that had been wandering for nine days, nodded, stood up and followed the girl toward the house. Walk into the pavilion.
The Song Mansion saw that Miss Song had gone through all these difficulties smoothly, and the marriage with the village man was progressing much more smoothly than Yu Nian had expected. They originally thought that it would take more words to bring about this fateful couple, but who knew that Song Yuan was so strong? When I saw the old Taoist priest calculating the good fortune for the two of them to get married, he immediately agreed without listening to the other people's carefully considered words. On the contrary, everyone's carefully prepared words were blocked before they could be spoken out.
At this time, the old Taoist priest who was very familiar with Song Yuanwai couldn't help asking why he suddenly agreed so readily, but he heard Song Yuanwai say: "Since several immortal figures from Sifang Mountain want to make this happen, How can you not obey your advice when it comes to marriage? The little girl and he are in love with each other and agree with each other, so how can they object? Furthermore, as the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, how can the Zhang family's brother risk his life and death to save his little girl? If you treat her badly, just accept it." At this point, Miss Song and the price increase guy both looked at each other and smiled, with endless sweetness in their eyes. However, as for why it was so straightforward, Song Yuanwai also had his own little Jiujiu in his heart. Since Sifangshan was the matchmaker for this marriage, it was natural to invite several disciples or higher-status deacons and elders to the wedding banquet. To witness, coming and going, this undoubtedly brings a closer relationship with this holy land of the Immortal Family.
Song Yuan Liang remembered something, raised his glass and smiled at Yang Qing: "Speaking of which, I have to thank this little fairy girl. She has such magical powers at such a young age and can crush demons with one hand. She is a noble person of my Song family!"
Hearing Song Yuanwai praise her so much, the girl blushed and said embarrassedly: "Yuan Yuanwai Song is too praised and called a noble person, but I dare not take credit alone. Fortunately, Miss Song and the Zhang family brother are loyal and deserve it." Happy marriage! If I stay, I hope to have a cup of wedding wine."
Hearing what Yang Qing said, everyone present, including members of the Song Dynasty and the old Taoist priests, clapped their hands together and praised the good deeds, and were very happy.
At this time, Miss Song was also grateful to the old Taoist priest and the girl. She understood the cause and effect. The previous prejudice against the old Taoist priest had long been dissipated. Not only that, she also asked the Zhang family brother to talk hesitantly about the embarrassment of kicking the Gua stall that day. The incident made Yu Nian extremely amused.
Of course, Song Yuanwai appreciated the kindness of several people and gave away all 400 taels of silver, which was more than double the amount. When giving the gift, Lu Yingchao was the only one who said a few words of humility and repeatedly declined, saying that he had come down the mountain under the orders of his master. , He also said that there was no need to carry money with him on the mountain, but it would only add to the burden, so he asked the old Taoist priests to take it temporarily. After the breakfast banquet, he did not dare to stay any longer, and he had to go to Sifang Mountain urgently to report back. Teacher gate.
After a few words, the old Taoist priest and Yu Nian were very happy to hear it. At this moment, the young man was overwhelmed with the lining bag in his arms. However, Song Yuanwai was not too surprised that Lu Yingchao was leaving and had a firm attitude. After all, this How could such an immortal person stay in the Song Mansion if he had no desires or requirements? He said politely: "Immortal Lu is leaving, so I don't dare to force him to stay. I just want to know if he can come to the banquet on my daughter's wedding day." I am so grateful for the kindness I received the day before. I am so grateful that I will never forget it."
And Yu Nian also took advantage of this conversation to say goodbye to Song Yuanwai. The reason was that there were still many things waiting for him to do in Taoyuan Tower.
As soon as he said this, Song Yuanwai waved his hands and said that Taoyuan Tower belongs to his family, and it is the same for him to work for him. What's more, since the younger brother is the old immortal's disciple, how can he go back and do some rough work? , As for the matter of Taoyuan Tower, he will send someone to arrange it properly today, so there is no need to worry.
Seeing that Mr. Song was so polite, Yu Nian couldn't shirk it, so he could only nodded and said with a slight smile: "Since Mr. Song is kind to me, it's better for me to be respectful than to obey."
When the breakfast banquet was over, the few of them saw the bright spring scenery, the blue sky and the white sun again, and they immediately felt like they were human beings again. Thinking that the incident with the mirror demon had finally come to an end, what was interesting was that the old Taoist priest who had been walking as usual in front, Suddenly he sat down on the ground, his face that was originally full of scenery suddenly grinned and screamed, "Ouch! I just wanted to make some money to support my retirement for the rest of my life, but now it's good, I guess my internal organs and intestines have been hurt." , Xiaoqing, take a look for me, do I have four or five broken ribs? Alas! I'm so old, but I didn't expect that there is still a disaster. I'm afraid I won't be able to get over this hurdle, Xiaoqing, just Just find a geomantic treasure, dig a hole, and erect a monument as a sign of filial piety!"
Yu Nian's eyes were complicated. He glanced at the half-drunk old Taoist who was overtaken by the wine, and said with complicated eyes: "So, Taoist Priest, you have been suffering from pain just now. Look at the way you were having sex with Song Yuanwai just now, and you are still talking to someone who has nothing to do with you." Like, let me just say, I am so tired that my whole body is sore and weak, you have such an old body..."
Before the young man could finish his teasing words, Yang Qing on the side stopped him and said with a smile: "Let me have a look."
However, although the girl said this, she still stood without moving even half a step. She just glanced at the old Taoist priest casually, then took out the heavy bag of silver from her arms with a smile and handed it to the old Taoist priest. .
"Dad, please stop pretending. I know you have put in a lot of effort this time. Please keep these coins for me." The old Taoist priest's thoughts were very clear to the girl.
"Go, go, you girl, I'm afraid you will eat up this hundred taels of silver in a few months, and I won't lose it in my hands. Besides, your father, I will save it for you." What's wrong with the dowry money?" After saying that, the old Taoist priest took out two ingots of silver from his money bag, threw them to the girl, and said: "When you go out, go to Taoyuan Tower and remember to give me a cup of beautiful flower sculptures. When you leave Yu, It’s also easy to satisfy your cravings on the road in the county.”
As soon as Yu Nian heard that the old Taoist priest did not intend to stay in Yu County for a while, he couldn't help but think of the doubts he had in the morning, and couldn't help but interrupt the conversation between the two: "Taoist priest, you said it was the member of the Song Dynasty who came forward to flatter you. What kind of person is Sifangshan? Of course, you don’t count..."
However, this time, the old Taoist priest did not retort because of the teasing intention of the young man in the second half of his sentence. Instead, he said to Yu Nian seriously: "Actually, he is no different from ordinary people. When I was young, I had the honor to have a talk with Master Benhuan of Zenxin Temple. Three games, but each time I was just missing one move. When I wanted to ask him for advice, he said to me, "You can use your own ordinaryness to know the ordinaryness of others, and you can use your own extraordinaryness to know the extraordinaryness of others. All living beings have no self, and I am all living beings." .' Later I also understood that in fact, these 'all living beings' are all the same, and there is no way I can get away with just the word 'seeking'."
Seeing that the young man was listening intently without saying a word, the old Taoist priest became more interested in talking, and then said: "It's just that what monks like us are diligently pursuing is the great scroll of chance. If we can catch a glimpse of the secrets of heaven, we can attain the Tao and ascend, and from then on we will live the same life as heaven and earth. The sun and the moon shine together, and those magical Taoist methods that fly on swords and suddenly travel between heaven and earth are superficial phenomena, but what most monks pursue is often this. You, what you seek is a silver coin in your arms. Duoduo, stay safe."
The old Taoist priest's words were completely different from the teachings of Mo Xiucai in his previous private school. However, every word of the old Taoist priest's words made sense. Yu Nian was fascinated by what he said and it was completely engraved in his mind.
Then for two consecutive days, the Song Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. The banquet was held all night long and never stopped, making the Song Mansion more lively than before. Some people from Yu County passing by came to the Song Mansion to congratulate them. The people in front of the door This Chahao Lane has gradually returned to its former liveliness.
It is worth mentioning that Song Yuanwai personally chose an auspicious day and decided on the marriage between the Zhang family's younger brother and Miss Song at this banquet. When the unmarried son-in-law toasted to his father-in-law, it can be said that he was satisfied. For the sake of worldly interests, he meticulously performs various tedious tasks.
It was not until late at night that Yu Nian and the other three were respectfully welcomed to the study room by the rosy-faced member of the Song Dynasty. They also presented several large ingots of white silver to everyone. Of course, they were not showing off their courtesy for nothing. This shrewd man After a few days of entertaining, the elder finally couldn't help but speak, just to ask for a magical talisman to protect himself and keep him safe.
There is a saying that one is short-handed and soft-spoken, but now that he saw a sincere request for amulet, the old Taoist priest had no reason not to agree, so he immediately agreed.
However, the old Taoist priest knew that these talismans were not of much use to the woman in green clothes, and uncharacteristically did not ask for much money. Instead, he persuaded Song Yuanwai with sincerity and said: "After all, these talismans can only be kept for a while. The reason for the failure is the reason. The result will be fruitful. To untie the bell, the person who tied it must be settled. Master Song will finally settle this grievance yourself." After that, the old Taoist priest also threatened that he would stay in Yu County for a while longer, which can be regarded as a good person who will do it to the end. , Miss Song’s spirit has just calmed down in the past few days, and she will send a few "calming spells" to nourish the spirit and nourish the soul. This time, this member Song is so happy that she smiles brightly, and the wrinkles on her face seem to relax. Come.
