The two of them had finished eating before they finished their meal, and they lay down on two lounge chairs in a daze.
Xu Jingyun looked at Li Hongxiu with half-closed eyes and said, "Tell me, what are we living for?"
"When I was young, like these kids, I wanted to learn kung fu, so I found a master and practiced hard. Later, I just wanted to be rich, so I thought of ways to make money, and finally one day I opened This building.”
"I have learned some kung fu and earned some money, but you ask me why I live? I really don't know how to answer you." Li Hongxiu opened her eyes and looked at Xu Jingyun and replied.
"Well, I'm almost like you. In the past, I only knew how to follow the master to learn kung fu and work hard to improve my cultivation. Now that I think about it carefully, I seem to have lost my direction again. I can only keep walking forward. , Keep improving your cultivation." Xu Jingyun said quietly.
"Looking at the beginning of love among these children, you and I don't even know what love is. Have we lived in vain?" Xu Jingyun felt tired and closed her eyes.
The afternoon sun did not penetrate the house, and only the autumn wind mixed with the smell of Liuhe blew in, as if to comfort the two lonely women.
They each wonder whether it is time to find a destination for themselves.
Li Hongxiu secretly made up her mind to go back to Tianshan Mountain and find her husband to find out.
Xu Jingyun was thinking about how long she could travel around the world to meet the person she likes.
Before they knew it, both of them fell asleep.
...
Speaking of Li Ye and his husband on Tianshan Mountain, according to his plan, they would not arrive at their accommodation on the mountain until half past midnight.
But while Li Ye was practicing crazily, he actually reached the mountainside about 1,500 feet ahead of schedule.
The husband led Li Ye off the mountain road, passed through a forest covered with big trees, and came to the edge of a cliff. I saw a stone platform on the edge of the cliff. Although it was not very smooth, it was still very flat.
The stone platform is very large, about ten feet. It is a whole stone wall leaning against the mountain. It looks like it has been cut out by a knife. It can only be described as a mirror surface.
The gentleman approached the stone wall and pressed it somewhere with his hand. He saw that a stone door was pushed open on the smooth stone wall, revealing a hole.
The husband turned back, looked at Li Ye, and said, "This is the place where I lived before. There are all daily necessities in it. This stone platform is where you can practice swordsmanship. Boxing is a natural and good place."
"Our days on Tianshan Mountain will be spent here. Further up, there is the snow line, which does not melt all year round and is not suitable for living. This is just right. Even if the mountain is blocked by heavy snow in winter, there is no need to worry."
"Stay here for a few days first. When you get used to it, we can walk around, collect herbs, find some wild fruits and vegetables, hunt some wild animals, and put them in the cave. If you spend the winter in the mountains, you don't have to worry about running out of things. eat."
After saying that, the husband carried two bags and entered the cave.
Li Ye also carried the sword in his hand and followed Mr. into the cave.
I saw that the door of the cave was a complete stone slab, polished smooth from top to bottom, and could be pushed open to the left.
The cave door is not big, just about the height of a person. After walking through the passage of about 20 feet, the cave gradually becomes larger. The inside is about 20 feet in diameter. This is a natural stone cave with smooth walls and many stone platforms. Put a quilt on it and it can be used as a bed.
The gentleman found a large stone platform, put down his baggage, and turned to Li Ye and said, "A little further in, there is snow water from the mountains flowing along the underground river. You don't have to worry about drinking water."
Li Ye nodded, feeling miraculous that the entire cave could illuminate the surroundings even though there were no lights on.
Seeing Li Ye's dazed look, the gentleman raised his hand, pointed to a gap, and said, "There is an exit there. It is on the stone wall. The light can come in during the day. Naturally, if you don't need a lamp in front, you still need it at night."
"There are many cedars in the Tianshan Mountains, which contain high oil content. We will find more and bring them back to use for lighting at night."
Pointing to the stone platform about three feet away from him, the gentleman said: "On it are the food, oil, pots and bowls that were stored in the past few years. They will be moved outside the cave later. We will light a fire outside the cave later. Cook and make tea.”
Li Ye climbed to the stone platform where the food was placed. Sure enough, there were more than 20 bags of rice and several barrels of oil piled on top. Looking at all the things in front of me, I thought that I wouldn’t have to go hungry in the mountains in the future.
Just as he was thinking about it, his whole body suddenly went limp and he collapsed on the stone platform.
Li Ye looked at his husband feebly and said, "Sir, I seem to have lost my strength and can't move."
The teacher meditated on the stone platform and said with a smile: "I told you not to use force when going up the mountain, but to maintain speed. When you got up and ran as hard as you could, it was already a miracle that you lost strength at this time."
"Let's rest for a while first, and then we can cook something to eat after we regain our strength." The husband also wanted to meditate to regain his strength and stopped talking.
Li Ye didn't even have the energy to speak at this moment, so he just lay on the stage, slowly circulating the Qi in his body, regulating the meridians around his body, and concentrating on regaining his energy.
The small hole in the stone wall was like a skylight, and a faint light shone quietly on Li Ye's body through the cave wall. At this moment, Li Ye felt very peaceful.
I closed my eyes, as if I was about to fall asleep, but I was quietly chanting the scriptures taught by the old monk.
After reciting it several times and regaining some strength, Li Ye also stood up and meditated, with his five hearts pointing toward the sky and forgetting both things and myself.
The entire cave was unusually quiet, with only the chanting of scriptures gently echoing...
...I have been guided by the Buddha from a long time ago, and I have gained incredible divine power and great wisdom. My avatars fill hundreds of thousands of billions of Ganges sand worlds. Each world takes on hundreds of thousands of billions of bodies. Each body saves hundreds of thousands of billions of people, so that they can worship the Three Jewels, escape life and death forever, and reach the bliss of Nirvana... ..
At this moment, time stopped, and the light and shadow shooting down from the cave wall seemed to turn into a faint golden light, shrouding Li Ye's weak body, becoming more and more thick, and becoming too thick to be dissolved.
The gentleman seemed to have fallen asleep deeply while chanting the Buddhist scriptures softly, but there was a peaceful smile on his calm face.
...
At the foot of the mountain, in Fengyun City, in the academy, in Li Ye's room, the young lady still woke up from her sleep.
Smelling the faint scent of the sun on the quilt, looking at the books on the bookshelf, I don't know where I am in my dream.
Lying down, the young lady crawled out of bed and went to the bookshelf to pick up a book.
When he opened it, he saw that it was "Enlightenment of Rhythm". Li Ye once gave him a copy. He gently touched the regular regular characters with his little hands, as if Li Ye was sitting in front of him, and he could not help but whisper softly:
The clouds are against the rain, the snow is against the wind, and the evening light is against the clear sky.
The approaching geese are opposite to the departing geese, and the local birds are opposite to the singing insects.
Three-foot sword, six-jun bow, Lingbei faces Jiangdong.
The Qingshu Palace in the world is the Guanghan Palace in the sky.
The willows and willows are green in the morning smoke on both sides of the bank, and the apricot blossoms are red in the spring rain in the garden.
.......
For a moment, I couldn't hold back my tears, and a big tear fell on the scroll.
The young lady was crying in the room, but she didn't know that Ye Zhiqiu was standing crazily outside the window.
Madam looked at the sky and thought that Miss Wushuang hadn't had lunch yet, so she came to Li Ye's room to wake her up. Unexpectedly, as soon as I reached the window, I heard the sound of the young lady reading and crying.
I thought to myself that when I was with the Master, I did not feel so much sorrow, nor did I shed so many tears.
This little girl's life has just begun, and she is already so deeply troubled. What will happen next?
Thinking of this, I couldn't stop crying.
He took out the silk scarf and gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Master and disciple, one was crying in the room and the other was in a daze outside the window.
The setting sun of Youshi shines on Ye Zhiqiu's body, as if covered with a layer of golden light, bright and flamboyant.
"Master, what are you doing standing here?" At some point, the young lady stood next to Ye Zhiqiu.
Ye Zhiqiu suddenly turned around, looked at the young lady beside him, gently wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand, and said: "I saw that you haven't woken up for a long time, so I was afraid that you were hungry, so I came over to take a look."
"Let me tell you, I'm really hungry. Is there anything to eat?" the young lady touched her belly and shouted.
Looking at the coquettish young lady, Ye Zhiqiu smiled happily and said, "It will be dinner in a while. You can go to the flower hall to have some snacks first."
The young lady took Ye Zhiqiu's hand and ran anxiously to the flower hall, shouting: "I'm starving, I can't survive anymore, I need to eat more cakes."
"How many times have I told you, a woman should behave like a lady, slow down, slow down."
As long as the master and disciple miss the relationship between Li Ye, they will be extremely happy.
While jogging along, when I saw Agui, the young lady shouted: "Agui, hurry up and get some cakes. I'm going to starve to death. I can't survive."
Agui nodded and said yes repeatedly.
But he said to Ye Zhiqiu who was behind the young lady: "Madam, there are many guests coming to the house, and they are all waiting for you in the flower hall."
Ye Zhiqiu thought to himself, who would come to the house now, nodded, and said: "Go and bring some pastries to Shuang'er first, take more, and then order tea to be served in the flower hall.
Agui turned and left. The master and apprentice came to the flower hall, and they were both wondering who was coming.
As soon as she entered the flower hall, she heard Dongfang Yu'er's voice: "Sister Wushuang, are you awake?"
Li Mingzhu, Li Hongxiu, Xu Jingyun, and Dongfang Yu'er were seen sitting in the tea hall, while Dongfang Yu'er ran over and held Miss Wushuang's hand.
Ye Zhiqiu and the three people met and sat down. Agui brought up a plate of apricot blossom cake, and someone behind him brought tea and poured a cup for everyone.
The young lady didn't say anything. She first took a piece of cake from the plate and stuffed it into her mouth. Then she took it and handed it to Dongfang Yu'er. She said in an unclear voice: "I'm so hungry. Eat first." ,Ignore you."
Ye Zhiqiu was also distressed and said hurriedly: "Eat slowly, don't choke, and I'm not trying to steal it from you."
After looking at the puzzled looks of the three of them, he added: "Wu Shuang woke up at noon and missed lunch. He must be so hungry that he panics."
Xu Jingyun knew that the young lady had not eaten lunch, so she just looked at her quietly.
When it comes to Li Mingzhu and Dongfang Yu'er, why did Senior Sister Xindao come to the academy but didn't even eat lunch and just fell asleep?
How fun is this?
"It's rare for a few of you to come over to the house. Let's have dinner here. There are so many people and everyone is lively."
Ye Zhiqiu turned around and told Agui to go down and prepare dinner.
The deserted flower hall suddenly became lively when four guests arrived.
The two young ladies hid aside, you and I eating the apricot cake one by one.
The two of them whispered, not knowing what they were discussing.
Xu Jingyun spoke first. "I went to Hongxiu's place to stay for a while. I had nothing to do, so I came over to see Shuang'er."
