Just as Tang Qiuyu expected, it started to snow lightly in Fangcun Mountain early the next morning.
The bodyguard in black talked with Li Ye secretly all night. Taking some drawings Li Ye gave him and a letter to the emperor, he braved the light snow and left Xuantian Temple. He had to go all the way east to return to the Central Plains. Territory Imperial City.
Nangong Ruyu likes snowy days, and so does Xia Wutong.
Although there are only scattered snowflakes falling in front of me, I can't build a snowman in the yard yet.
But what about tomorrow?
After a hurried breakfast, Li Ye left Nangong Ruyu and Xia Wutong in the yard and asked Xiaohua to take them to the foot of the back mountain to see if they could catch some snow chickens and bring them back for barbecue.
Speaking of hunting, not only Nangong Ruyu likes it, but Princess Wutong is also happy.
Xiaohua led the two of them outside, while Jiang Ruoyu kept nagging behind.
Tang Qiuyu held her back. The child was still two years older than Li Ye, so there was no need for her to keep nagging her all day long.
The three of them walked through the light snow on the mountain and headed towards Qingxu's residence.
The north wind carried melting snow and blew into Li Ye's neck, giving him a sense of clarity and upward motivation.
Both women wear silk scarves. Women always cherish themselves.
These two great practitioners are no exception.
"This Xuantian Temple is indeed a good place to practice, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, far away from the chaos of the world." Jiang Ruoyu said with a faint smile as he watched the gray roof of Xuantian Temple gradually whitening.
"I think so too." Tang Qiuyu has lived here for a long time, so he naturally understands the benefits here.
Li Ye felt it carefully and said after a long silence: "Prajna Temple is also very good."
...
Qingxu seemed to know that a visitor was coming. Before the three of them entered the living room, the small stove on the table was already lit, the kettle on it was steaming, and there was a basin of charcoal fire burning in the room.
Li Ye suddenly felt a warm feeling, not like it was snowing.
Qingxu looked at the three of them and asked, "Where are the guests coming from? What's the matter?"
Li Ye looked at him and replied calmly: "Come from where you came from and go to where you want to go... I came to disturb the master's practice. I hope the master will forgive me."
Qingxu glared at him and said with a smile: "This is not Prajna Temple, what are you trying to do?"
Li Ye was stunned and quickly told Jiang Ruoyu's identity and purpose of coming. Tang Qiuyu and Qingxu knew each other well, so there was no need for him to introduce them.
"Where is my Master Jiu Chi?" Li Ye didn't see Jiu Chi and was a little surprised.
"That guy, I guess it's snowing so he can sleep in, right?" Qingxu smiled lightly and asked Jiang Ruoyu to sit down.
After Li Ye was silent for a moment, he asked softly: "Master, Senior Jiang will be practicing in Qingshi Courtyard for the next few days, and he will go to the top of the mountain with the two masters..."
He didn't say the next words, but he thought Qingxu should be able to understand.
Qingxu looked at the three of them, with a bright luster in his eyes, seeming to praise and marvel at the same time. He could tell Jiang Ruoyu's cultivation level as soon as he entered the room.
Looking at Jiang Ruoyu, Qingxu smiled and said: "I didn't expect that there are such masters in the five realms. It seems that Jiu Chi and I won't be lonely during our trip."
Jiang Ruoyu looked at Qingxu and replied with a smile: "In this case, I will disturb the Taoist priest in the future."
Qingxu gently stroked the beard on his chin and said with a faint smile: "To put it seriously, Li Ye is my close disciple of Qingxu. I am very happy that you can come to Xuantian Temple."
Li Ye didn't know how to answer.
"The junior brought his apprentice to Xuantian Temple again, hoping to get guidance from the senior in practice."
Although Tang Qiuyu was in the middle stage of distraction state, she understood the difference between herself and Qingxu, considered herself a junior, and asked Qingxu for advice like Li Ye.
Qingxu looked at her and smiled and said: "Mr. Tang, you don't have to consider yourself a junior. If you have any questions, just ask me. This is not the first time for your little disciple to come to Xuantian Temple, so don't be polite."
How could he not see Tang Qiuyu's intentions despite his age?
Seeing that his disciple was sad, he naturally wanted someone to comfort him and help him get out of the sadness and predicament of Mu Mu's departure.
"You bring her here tomorrow, no matter whether she comes or not." Looking at Tang Qiuyu, Qingxu smiled lightly.
For Jiang Ruoyu, everyone is in the same realm, and all they can talk about is some insights, so he almost didn't invite him specially. At their realm, everyone has understood a lot of things.
Tang Qiuyu was overjoyed. She didn't expect things to go so smoothly. She couldn't help but take a deep look at Li Ye, thinking that only such a young man could seduce the old man who was about to survive the calamity.
No matter what, she must seize the opportunity in front of her, and let Wutong seize this rare opportunity, whether it is Qingxu or Li Ye.
Being able to receive guidance from the head of Xuantian Temple who is about to leave this world is not an opportunity that only practitioners in the Five Realms can ask for.
Looking at the three of them, Li Ye couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that there will be nothing to do without disciples in the coming days."
The water is boiling, and the tea is brewed in a clear state, and the fragrance gradually arises.
Qingxu looked at his proud apprentice and couldn't help but ask: "Before I leave, you have to give me a jar of the vat of wine you brewed."
After drinking Li Ye Nian's drunken life and dreams, he felt that all the wine he drank in his life was water.
Li Ye was stunned and looked at Qingxu blankly. He didn't expect that his master would suddenly mention this matter, so he couldn't help but sit there blankly.
After a long time, he whispered softly: "Master is going to survive the catastrophe of ascension. Can he take the wine in this world with him and leave?"
In the memory left by Monk Poxu, there are many things in this world that cannot be taken away with him, otherwise he would not be able to inherit the legacy of the old monk.
Qingxu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "That's my business, you just need to give me a jar."
After thinking for a moment, Li Ye replied: "Of course."
No matter how precious it is, as long as his master wants it, he can take it out, let alone just a jar of drunkenness and dreams. He and Ming Hui calculated that that large vat could be divided into at least thirty jars.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Qingxu laughed, with tears in his laughter. "Everyone wants to seek the Tao, but they forget that there are many beautiful things in this world that they have never enjoyed or seen..."
I don't know whether he said this to the two women or to himself.
Seeing Qingxu smiling with tears in his eyes, the two women wondered what it meant, but they couldn't figure it out.
"What is it? What is it that makes the master never forget it? What is it?"
Tang Qiuyu looked at Li Ye and asked loudly. At this moment, she had forgotten what reserve was.
Qingxu gradually suppressed his smile, looked at Tang Qiuyu seriously and said: "That is a vat of wine that you will never forget after drinking it, and you will not be able to wake up when you are drunk. This wine should only be found in the sky, and it is difficult for humans to find it."
Very simple words, very clear answer, but Tang Qiuyu was shocked and speechless.
He was speechless for a long time, staring blankly at Jiang Ruoyu while murmuring.
She thought of the vat of wine she missed in Huamanlou, which made Hua Tianxia burst into tears and made Li Ye drunk for a whole day and night.
After being silent for a long time, she asked in a daze: "Master, is it the kind of drunkenness that even the alcoholic seniors couldn't brew back then?"
Qingxu was stunned for a moment, looked at her and said with a smile, "That's right, even the old guy who is a drunkard can't brew the beautiful wine, but my disciple accidentally brewed it."
Tang Qiuyu was once again shocked by the two of them. Hua Tianxia spent tens of thousands of gold coins back then, and since then, some people have given out hundreds of thousands of gold coins, but it's just that it's hard to find someone in this world.
Because the alcoholic can’t brew it himself.
This matter was aroused in the five regions and spread for several years.
A few flakes of flying snow blew into the living room with the north wind, and were blown up by a gust of wind. They floated gently to the three of them, and finally gradually melted into water.
Looking at the young man in front of him, Tang Qiuyu covered his mouth.
"Okay, okay! Let me tell you the origin of this wine again. I brewed it accidentally a few years ago. I remember it was the Jingzhe that day and the weather was slightly cool... A good friend of mine who has been with me for many years agreed to come that day. She wanted to see me, but she didn’t come that day.”
While the four of them were in a daze, a drunkard's voice came from the living room.
The drunkard with only one shoulder on his shoulder and whitening hair with snowflakes falling came in, sat down next to Li Ye, and watched several people in the room whisper softly, just like when he met Li Ye in the inn... ....
"Although I like her very much, I have never told her because I am afraid that I will lose her if I tell her... I am jealous of those people around her who have been pursuing her, although I also want to know that she is liked What does it feel like.”
"As a result, I kept procrastinating like this for many years...until the Jingzhe that year, she didn't come to see me again...I always thought we would be together, because I felt that she liked me of......"
Hearing this, Li Ye suddenly thought of Mu Mu who had transformed into a golden phoenix and left. Tears fell unsatisfactorily, and he murmured softly:
"She never said she likes me, but I know there are some things I don't have to say,... I just want her to say one thing, but she is always willing to say it,... I am too confident I thought she would definitely marry me..."
The drunkard looked at Li Ye, who was in tears, and became more and more excited.
Li Ye didn't wait for his master to continue, but continued talking, and even forgot to take out a silk scarf to wipe away the tears on his face.
"That day I was drinking and mixing new wine, and I was crying while drinking...for her, and for myself...I don't know why I did it, but at that moment, I couldn't control myself. "
"When the wine was brewing, the tears on my face slowly dried up... I don't know if the woman I love the most will shed tears for me."
The drunkard looked at him and blurted out, "Definitely!"
The drunkard looked at his precious apprentice quietly. He thought of Li Ye's life experiences, how he lost his beloved in an unknown place, and how he thought of the lover who left him. He couldn't help but sigh.
Looking at Li Ye who was becoming obsessed with him, the drunkard continued softly.
"Many years have passed... I really want to forget everything that happened that day, but my only flaw is that I have a very good memory, and I can never forget what I should forget..."
"Walking and walking, we got here. ... But one day, when you are too old to walk, you will think of a name in your life, and at that moment, you will know There is only one person you love most..."
"The glass of wine you drank was what I brewed that day. ... Later I wanted to brew it again and tried many methods, but found that I could no longer produce the taste of that kind of wine... Drink Once you finish the wine in the gourd, there will be no more wine in the world!"
The drunkard looked a little depressed. He raised his tea cup to signal to the three of them, then gently put it to his lips and tasted it slowly, bite by bite.
If you are tasting a cup of drunkenness.
Li Ye, who was confused, murmured: "Not long ago, there was a person. She told me that there is a kind of wine called "Drunk Life, Dreams and Death". After drinking it, you can forget everything you have done before."
"She said that the biggest trouble people have is that they have too good a memory. How happy would it be if I could forget everything and every day would be a new beginning?"
"It's just that after I drank that drunkenness, I really forgot everything. From then on, a woman's name was always engraved in my heart..."
Li Ye said softly after recalling the bitter resentment deep in his heart.
Tang Qiuyu sighed softly and said to himself: "It turns out that this is what you drank that afternoon. It turns out that senior is an alcoholic."
Tang Qiuyu finally understood that the slovenly guy in front of him was the legendary figure in the Five Realms.
While thinking about the story Li Ye told, he also recalled what the man in front of him said.
Looking up, Tang Qiuyu said softly: "I missed that vat of wine that year. I didn't expect that after countless years, I would still meet it in this Xuantian Temple..."
Looking at the half-full cup of tea left in the cup, Li Ye picked it up and put it to his lips and took a sip, as if he was drunk with tea.
"One night I suddenly wanted to drink, but I ended up drinking half a bottle of drunkenness. I suddenly realized that in fact, drunkenness was just a joke."
"The more you wonder if you have forgotten someone, the clearer you will remember it. I once heard someone say that when you can no longer have someone, the only thing you can do is to make yourself not forget."
He was so worried that he drank half of the remaining tea in the cup, looked at the four people in front of him, and shook his head with a wry smile.
"After drinking this drunken dream, you will understand that my drunkard finally has his own successor in the five regions. There are successors in the five regions and he has his own wine god."
After taking a look at the two women in front of him, the drunkard reached out and patted Li Ye on the shoulder, sighing softly.
Jiang Ruoyu had never drunk the legendary wine, but looking at the appearance of the three people in front of her, she thought it must be extraordinary.
Looking at Li Ye, he said: "I can't believe that you are actually a disciple of Jiu Zhi. I'm afraid no one in the Five Realms would even think of it, right?"
Li Ye looked up at her, not knowing how to reply. He murmured after a while: "This is some private matter of the juniors. It really can't be brought to the table and makes you two laugh."
Qingxu looked at him, smiled and shook his head.
The drunkard looked at him and nodded proudly.
But Tang Qiyu thought that spring would come soon and she would have a taste of that jar...
