After Qiu Xi'er sighed, she ruthlessly drove Nan Dao out of Jingsi Lake and asked him to come back here tomorrow afternoon.
Nan Dao looked at the late morning sky and walked back to the Qingniu Courtyard from the path. He picked up the broom he had dropped earlier by the pulpit, dragged the apricot flowers on the ground as he walked, and then I saw Mr. Xie coming from the opposite side of the path.
"Did you come to Mr. Yunhu's class today?" Mr. Xie stopped by the road and looked at Nan Dao with a smile.
Nan Dao, the umbrella executive, bowed and said, "I heard some, but..."
Mr. Xie looked at Nan Dao and said, "But what?"
"But most of them didn't understand."
Nan Dao said with some shame.
Mr. Xie laughed twice, patted Nan Dao on the shoulder and said, "Because you have just begun to understand spiritual practice. From now on, you will listen slowly and you will be fine once you get started."
Nan Dao nodded and said yes, then looked at Mr. Xie and asked, "Sir, are you going to Jingsi Lake?"
Mr. Xie shook his head and said: "Jingsi Lake is currently the area assigned to Mr. Qiu Da by Xuansheyuan. You should try not to go there on weekdays."
"..." Nan Dao didn't know whether he should tell Qiu Xi'er that he wanted to teach him how to learn swordsmanship. After thinking about it, he still didn't tell Mr. His approach was somewhat curious.
"Is Mr. Qiuda difficult to get along with?"
Mr. Xie shook his head and said, "That's not true. You're new here. I'm afraid you'd rush in and leave a bad impression on her."
"That's true."
Nan Dao directly and selectively forgot what he had done before.
"I know that you have been to the human sword sect, and you may have some misjudgments about many things in the world of cultivation, but you have to know that Mojianya is the first of many sword sects in the human world. Those on the cliff can do it without offending or not. .”
Mr. Xie said very sincerely.
"Thank you sir for the reminder."
Nan Dao said, then he remembered the previous question, "Where are you going, sir?"
"I'm going to sit in the Xinglin Forest." Mr. Xie said calmly and walked over.
"Have a seat?"
Nan Dao looked over there and saw a large apricot forest behind Xin Zi Dao Ping.
Mr. Xie didn't answer and walked over, stepping on the fallen flowers.
Nan Dao looked at it for a while, then dragged the broom and left.
Nan Dao walked around the Qingniu Courtyard for a long time before he remembered that he still didn't know where to look for Yun Hu. He saw a man sitting and drinking under the apricot tree not far away, so he walked over and asked: " Brother, do you know where Mr. Yunhu is?"
However, a sneer was heard.
Nan Dao saw the man turn around, and it turned out to be Hua Wuxi, who had had a bad encounter before.
"Hey, dogs can still laugh."
Nan Dao naturally didn't like him very much.
Any good person who opens his mouth will throw someone out.
Hua Wuxi was not angry this time. He just drank all the wine in the glass and looked at Nandao with a slight smile. "You think it's fun to take advantage of you?"
Nan Dao sat down opposite him, picked up his wine bottle and drank, saying: "After all, the country folk are weak and sick. They can't defeat you, so they have no choice but to scold you."
Hua Wuxi sat leaning back on the tree trunk and looked at Nandao. He didn't care that Nandao drank his wine, and said calmly: "It's true, women who curse the street, farmers who curse God, write articles This is usually the case when you scold scholars who do something you don't like."
"What do gentlemen like you do?"
"Find an uninhabited place, such as a remote alley, find some thugs, put a sack on the head, beat it down with a sap, then tie it with stones and throw it into the Nanyi River."
"You did a lot?"
"I did a lot."
"Then you have really done all kinds of bad things." Nan Dao sighed and drank all Hua Wuxi's wine.
Hua Wuxi looked at Nan Dao and said, "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm very scared, but I guess you wouldn't dare to attack me in Xuanshu Courtyard. You could at most beat me to vent your anger, but as Beitai said, I'm carrying a turtle shell." Nan Dao raised his hand. He knocked on the edge of the umbrella above his head, and there was a clanging sound.
"If someone is carrying a turtle shell, just drown him." Hua Wuxi said calmly.
"hehe."
Hua Wuxi stood up, patted the fallen flowers on her body, and looked down at Nandao.
"When I was bullied, I vented my anger, which is not like a man. This is what my brother told me when I was a child, so before I kill someone, I usually tell him openly."
Hua Wuxi said, turning around and stepping onto the path, taking two steps and looking back at Nandao.
"Oh, by the way, I know you have entered Taoism."
Nan Dao suddenly looked up at him.
Hua Wuxi was very satisfied with Nan Dao's performance. He nodded and said, "That's it. It would be better if there was a little more panic."
"Don't worry, no one else will see it, and I won't tell anyone else. I just want to tell you, it doesn't matter whether you enter the Tao or not."
"Why?"
Hua Wuxi turned around and continued walking, minding his own business and said, "Because people like us usually have a lot of thugs. Also, Mr. Yunhu is on the second floor of the library."
Nan Dao sat under the tree holding an empty wine bottle, looking at Hua Wuxi's leaving figure, tilting his head thoughtfully.
Do I have a goon?
Nan Dao fell into deep thought.
Does Zhang Xiaoyu count?
Nan Dao thought for a while, threw away the wine bottle, took the broom and left.
After walking a few steps, he turned back and picked up the wine bottle.
After all, I had a great time throwing it away today, but I still have to clean it up tomorrow.
The library is located in the middle of Xuanshuyuan, surrounded by Wenhuayuan, Qingniuyuan and Wuguiyuan. There are several stone paths outside the library that pass through the bamboo forest, and the library is in the middle of those bamboo forests.
Nan Dao thought he was going to find Yunhu Zhizi on the second floor of the library. When he got here, he happened to see Yunhu Zhizi walking into the bamboo forest holding several volumes of books. He hurriedly followed him while holding an umbrella and shouting. he.
"Mr. Yunhu."
Yun Huzhidao turned around with the book in his arms, looked at Nan Dao, nodded and said, "Do you want to read the book? The library is right next to it."
Nan Dao trotted over, shook his head and said with a smile, "No, Mr. Qiu asked me to come to you."
Yunhu nodded and said, "Then you come with me."
The two walked through the bamboo forest path and walked inside. After walking a short distance, they stopped in front of a green bamboo house. Yunhu opened the door and put the book on the table beside him.
"This is the place where Dean Qingxiang lived before, so I will stay here temporarily. He likes to drink, so there may be some smell of alcohol." Yun Hu walked to the window, opened the bamboo window, and talked with Nan Dao Said.
"Your Majesty..." Nan Dao was a little silent when he heard the name.
"I know you don't have a good impression of him, but he is actually a very interesting scholar." Yun Huzhi said with a smile.
Nan Dao didn't say anything, just nodded, and then looked around the room.
There was a bamboo couch in the corner with some books beside it. Nan Dao took one look at it and froze there.
Because what was written on it were the characters "Five Thousand Words of Green Ox".
"Is this a replica?"
Yunhu followed Nan Dao's gaze and walked over, picked it up, flipped it over, then put it back and said, "No, this is the original version of Hangu Temple."
"Why were you in Xuanxuyuan in the first place?" Nan Dao was a little confused.
"It has been stored in Xuanxuyuan for a thousand years." Yun Huzi said.
Nan Dao stared blankly at the yellowed book with only five large characters on the cover. He had never thought that the book "Five Thousand Words of the Green Ox" that opened up the path of spiritual practice in the world was placed there so casually.
"Can I take a look?" Nan Dao looked at Yun Hu Bu Shi.
Yunhu handed it to Nandao without knowing it.
Nan Dao carefully took the scroll.
"The world doesn't know it's here?"
"knew."
"Then why don't you want to come and steal it?"
Yunhu smiled softly and said, "Because Dean Qingxiang is a great demon in the world, they don't dare to come and snatch it."
Nan Dao was a little silent while holding the book.
"But in fact, this is just a book. It may have had supernatural powers in the past, but now Hangu Temple is no longer there. It only serves as a symbol of the beginning of the great road in the world. In the era of the prosperity of the great road, it is not precious. If you want something, I can give it to you."
Nan Dao was a little moved, but still shook his head and said: "Sir, you also said that Dean Qingxiang is a great demon in the world, but I am not. I will feel uneasy even if I hold it here, let alone walking in the city with it. world?"
Yun Huzi smiled softly and said: "That's true, but if you want to see it, you can take it back and have a look. If you don't leave Xuanshuyuan, no one will come to snatch it."
"Thank you sir."
Nan Dao carefully put the book into his arms.
"By the way, what's the matter with you coming to see me?" Yun Huzhidao sat down in front of the window and motioned for Nan Dao to sit aside.
Nan Dao thought for a while and said, "I have entered the Tao."
"?"
Unexpectedly, Yun Hu hadn't sat still yet. He almost fell down when he heard these words. The night before yesterday, when he first saw Nan Dao, he was still an ordinary person who fell into the water for some reason. Today, he came and said that he had become a Taoist. It was obviously unbelievable. .
"Seriously?" Yun Huzhidao looked at Nan Dao and asked.
Nan Dao raised his hand, and the vitality of heaven and earth in the bamboo forest began to gather here, and then fell on his fingertips, forming a mysterious vortex of breath.
"Wait a minute, you're not feeling Qi, are you seeing the truth?" Yun Huzhidao was just a little surprised at first, but when he saw the vortex on Nan Dao's fingertips, he became unusually excited. This time he really followed the bamboo The chair fell down.
Nan Dao looked at Yun Hu who was extremely gloomy and wondered why he was so excited.
"Sir, what is this?"
Yunhu climbed up on the chair and remembered something. He stared blankly at the vortex in Nan Dao's hand. The energy of the surrounding heaven and earth was still gathering here.
"South Island."
Yun Huzi suddenly called out Nan Dao's name.
"Sir, please speak."
"When did you become a Taoist?"
"Just today, when I was listening to my husband's sermon."
Yunhu fell silent, looked out the window at the bamboo forest for a long time, and said softly: "There's something wrong with you being a Taoist."
Nan Dao was stunned for a moment, looked at Yun Hu and asked, "What's the problem?"
"It's unreasonable and shouldn't be done."
"What's the meaning?"
"Back then, Sword Master Qing Yi went to Jian Cliff to practice cultivation at the age of nineteen. A year later, he stood at the highest place in the world. However, he never entered the Tao for a moment, and even skipped the process of sensing and becoming familiar with each other."
"Sir, what do you think the problem is?"
Yunhu turned his head to look at Nandao and said softly:
"Someone helped you repair the road."
"You can understand that you are a thief, and the treasure house of the Tao is locked. You first need to find the key, then open the lock, and finally open the door. It means getting straight to the point. The first state of entering the Tao is the state of seeing the mountain - but This is for others, but for you, the key is always in your hand, so when you know there is a door, you just walk in."
"So when you open the door, you will see the mountain."
Nan Dao fell silent and thought of many things.
Like peach blossom wine, like the sword intent in the divine sea.
There was also the peach-faced man in white who saved him in the river that night but never appeared again.
"I have no idea."
Nan Dao said.
