As the carriage entered Elder Ouyang's yard, the visitor handed the two horses to the groom to take away.
He also took off his cloak and bamboo hat under the eaves in front of the living room and hung it on a pillar under the eaves, for fear that the snow would wet the floor in the living room.
With his head lowered, a waterfall of black hair caught Ouyang Chongming's eyes. He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, thinking that this might be interesting.
He did not immediately ask the person's name. Instead, he pointed to the chair in front of the table and said, "Sit down for a while while I finish reading this letter."
At this moment, the butler waiting in the living room had handed over a letter sealed with fire paint.
When Ouyang Chongming opened it, he realized that this letter was from the fifth elder of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. The content of the letter actually told him something unexpected.
Even to him, it is a dispensable thing to cultivate.
It can be said that he can take this care for granted, or he can ignore it completely. After all, we have not had much contact with each other in the past.
It wasn't until the housekeeper said something in his ear that shocked him even more and gave him hope of breaking through the situation, that he started to take heart.
Read this letter from the snow mountain again.
He couldn't even understand that just to deal with a young man without spiritual energy, the Fifth Elder Zhuge Nanshan actually sent him a spiritual medicine that was enough to break through the realm.
The spiritual stone had no appeal to him at the moment, only the elixir that broke through the realm, which he couldn't forget.
After all, with his current level of cultivation, every time he breaks through a level, he doesn't know how long it will take and how many elixirs he will consume.
Thinking of this, Ouyang Chongming waved the butler back.
The housekeeper asked the servants in the house to bring the freshly brewed spiritual tea, and said softly: "So, then I will take this matter back to them on your behalf?"
Ouyang Chongming didn't speak, just nodded.
After the housekeeper left, he looked at the visitor and said calmly: "Tell me, do you have any good news to tell me?"
The visitor sat at the table, rubbed his hands, and took a sip of spiritual tea.
Then he said: "The three of us, brother and sister, passed by Jade Dragon Snow Mountain a few days ago. First we saw a woman surviving a tribulation in the snow... Then, dozens of miles away, we saw a blindfolded boy by the glacier... ..."
The person who came was Zhang Xiaoyan, the three bandit brothers. She decided not to quit. She thought about it and came to Yinchuan City to join Ouyang Chongming. Even if she was a retainer, it would be quieter than being a bandit.
At least, you can calm down and practice.
Who dares to provoke an elder like Ouyang Chongming in Yinchuan City? She thought about this decision for a long time before making it.
Unexpectedly, she ran into Ouyang Chongming on the street today, who had returned from visiting friends outside the city. In her opinion, this was God's will.
It took a while to explain in detail what happened on the road.
Finally, he said: "We two brothers and sisters looked at it from a distance. The young man obviously didn't have a trace of spiritual energy. In the end, he went to kill my senior brother. He must have possessed evil powers..."
After thinking about it for these days, she could only come to this decision, which was exactly the same as the letter written by Jade Dragon Snow Mountain to Ouyang Chongming.
"If this is the case, where do you think that young man will go?"
Ouyang Chongming was indeed interested. He looked at Zhang Xiaoyan and asked, "It's freezing cold. Where else can he go except to Yinchuan City?"
Zhang Xiaojiang shook his head and said: "No, I came slowly all the way to Yinchuan City, but I didn't see that young man on the way."
Ouyang Chongming slowly raised his head, took a sip of the spiritual tea in front of him.
He instantly understood what the guy in front of him meant. Going north, where else could he go but the small town under the volcano?
Thinking of this, even he couldn't help but feel slightly absent-minded.
I thought to myself, this is a good idea to fight, go all the way north, I am afraid that people in the world would think it over, and never imagine that they would go to that place in such horrible weather.
"What's your name? Your home is ***, and who else is there in your family? Please tell me."
Ouyang Chongming thought that he would have a smart female retainer in his house. With a little training, she would be a master of the Fusion Realm, but she could do anything.
Zhang Xiaoyan seemed a little surprised that Ouyang Chongming was so refreshing, and she was secretly happy.
He immediately replied: "My little girl, Zhang Xiaoyan, has been an orphan since she was a child. My senior brothers and sisters are dead. From now on, your family will be my home."
Ouyang Chongming took another sip of tea and said calmly: "In this case, you can stay in the house from now on. The housekeeper will tell you the place and rules of the house later."
At this moment, the housekeeper walked in with Ouyang Xuan, who was dressed in white clothes.
From a distance, Ouyang Xuan shouted: "Master is back just in time, tomorrow is the New Year."
Ouyang Chongming greeted the housekeeper: "Take Elder Zhang to find a clean house to live in, and tell her the rules of the house..."
The housekeeper didn't expect that the woman who came today was actually the master's retainer.
Then he said politely to Zhang Xiaoyan: "Elder Zhang, please come with me."
...
Ouyang Xuan looked at the housekeeper and Zhang Xiaoyan who had left the living room, and couldn't help but ask: "Is there anyone missing in the house?"
"Sit down first and then talk. Why are you in a hurry?"
Ouyang Chongming thought for a while and said, "There is certainly no shortage of ordinary elders, but it is not easy to find a female elder who is thoughtful and can do small things."
Only then did Ouyang Xuan understand and said with a smile, "It's fine if Master likes it."
After saying that, he took another jar of spiritual wine and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "I just asked the housekeeper to take away the new year's goods for me. This is the spiritual wine for you, master."
Ouyang Chongming handed him the letter on the table and said calmly: "Look at this letter before talking."
After saying that, he put away the spirit wine on the table, carried it to the bookshelf in the living room, and finally put it on the bottom floor.
He only poured a glass of this spiritual wine to enjoy himself when he was bored, so how could he use it to entertain guests?
This is why Ouyang Xuan specially brought it to the living room and personally gave it to the master.
Quietly, Ouyang Xuan read the letter twice before frowning and saying, "Why should we do this to them? What benefit do we have?"
When Ouyang Chongming heard this, he raised his brows and thought that he was indeed his disciple. So what if he is the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain? I still don't have to blame you.
He sighed softly. Ouyang Chongming said: "My teacher is just like you thought... It's just that they gave me something, but it hit my teacher's weakness."
Ouyang Xuan was startled and asked: "What treasure? Could it be..."
"That's right, it's just what you thought..."
After Ouyang Chongming finished speaking, he moved forward and murmured to himself: "You also know that I haven't tasted the feeling of breaking through for a long time. I can't die in front of you one day, right?"
From ancient times to the present, from kings to monks, and even mortals, who doesn’t want to get a chance of immortality for themselves? Even if you live ten more years or a hundred more years.
As long as there is a glimmer of hope, no one will ever give up.
Thinking that this matter is related to the master's breakthrough, Ouyang Xuan naturally has no objection, even if he is allowed to contribute, it is appropriate.
After thinking about it, Ouyang Xuan said: "Disciple thinks that even if we take action, we should not kill anyone. After all, we are from a well-known and decent family, not killers in Yinchuan City."
With his experiences back then, Ouyang Xuan's character has matured a lot over the years.
In addition, his mother always reminded him of the injury he received in Tianyun Mountain, which made him understand that there were only monks higher than himself in the world.
It's not a matter of life and death, there's no need to kill anyone.
However, Ouyang Chongming, who was eager to break through the situation, had obviously different thoughts from his disciple.
After some thought, he said quietly: "As for the killing, let the new elders who arrived today go to Yinchuan City to find someone to do it."
Ouyang Xuan was stunned. He obviously did not expect that the master would suddenly make such a decision.
In today's situation, he thought that the master could discuss it with his father and mother before making a decision, but he did not expect that the master could not wait to break the situation.
Ouyang Chongming looked at him and sighed, and said something that surprised him, finally dispelling Ouyang Xuan's thoughts.
Ouyang Chongming said: "A few days ago, I went out to see an old friend I hadn't seen for decades, and he couldn't do anything to me, saying that he would have to know the elders on Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and find the legendary elixir. "
Just one sentence made Ouyang Xuan feel unbearable.
Looking at the white hair beside the master's ears and on his head, he sighed deeply.
He said softly: "Master, don't worry, I will set off after the Chinese New Year to go to the place mentioned. After calculation, it seems that I haven't been there for ten years."
Looking at the master in front of him, Ouyang Xuan wondered if his parents would one day be like the master in front of him?
At that time, what will he, the son, do?
The master and the apprentice drank a cup of spiritual tea. Ouyang Chongming thought about it for a moment, looked at his precious disciple and said, "From now on, you must save spiritual medicine for yourself in the future."
"Lingshi is something external to the body. You can spend it randomly, but it is not easy to get precious elixirs. You must keep them well."
Ouyang Chongming shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Back then, I wouldn't have paid much attention to these elixirs... Now, a elixir can sometimes kill you."
He also knew that if he hadn't been stuck in this realm for decades, why would he have bothered to stand up for Zhuge Nanshan on the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and be this evil person?
So what if he is an upright monk and an elder of the Snowfield Holy Land?
In the face of such a major right and wrong, compared with the matter of life and death, all the principles of life can be thrown behind.
The sky is falling, wait until I break through.
After I break through the situation, I will come back and tell you about the so-called principles of life and the principles of the world.
Ouyang Xuan thought about it again and again, and finally sighed and said: "No matter what, the master has a chance to break through. This is a big deal, and we have to have a drink today."
Ouyang Chongming clapped his hands and called the housekeeper.
He loudly ordered: "Bring up some fried dishes. Our master and apprentice have been together for a long time. We will have a few drinks at noon to warm ourselves up."
The housekeeper smiled slightly, looked at the master and apprentice and asked, "Would you like to invite the madam?"
Ouyang Chongming shook his head: "We are chatting, so we won't disturb her. As a family, we are not in a hurry."
After the living room became quiet, Ouyang Chongming said, "When this matter is over, we will then consider the marriage between you and Man Xue."
After a moment of silence, Ouyang Xuan took a deep breath to calm himself down, and said with a smile: "Disciple, you shouldn't be worried about this, right?"
"Bullshit, you're not in a hurry, your parents are."
After Ouyang Chongming was silent for a while, he said with a smile: "Getting married early and having a child for your parents will not affect your cultivation path."
Ouyang Xuan didn't expect that the master, because he was hopeless, would immediately contact him when he saw a light in front of him.
For a moment, I couldn't help but sigh.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Master doesn't know that sometimes a marriage can kill a great monk."
Ouyang Chongming was shocked when he heard this and blurted out: "Is it possible that something shameful happened in Phoenix City?"
Ouyang Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "Manxue will have to tell you about this later."
