Hu Lu, a young boy from Nanyi City, would never have imagined that when he was on the Tomb Mountain, he thought that Chen Huaifeng had brought Nanyi City to ruin, all because of drinking wolfberry tea, and it would be so important in Qingtian Dao. thing.
Perhaps people from the Taoist sect would think more than the Sword Sect after experiencing the great cultivation of the human world in the ancient Taoist sect and ending up in a life of depression and choosing to drown themselves in the washbasin.
In Xuanxuyuan, a certain Mr. Wu who was born in Qingtian Dao also said something similar to a certain Mr. Huang Liang.
Chen Huaifeng sat there in silence.
He is just an outstanding practitioner compared to the world, but when placed in the upper echelons of the cultivation world, he is undoubtedly not that outstanding.
It's just that whether it was the senior Jianya in Xuanxu Courtyard or the current Bai Yuyao, they always seemed to be very optimistic about themselves.
The thirty-two-year-old Sword Sect disciple was sitting there. He didn't know why, but he suddenly remembered the explanation he had made to his junior brothers about his name a long time ago.
Old nostalgia, youthful style.
Not Chen Huaifeng who embraces the troubles of the world.
So what went wrong?
Chen Huaifeng didn't know.
Bai Yuyao's request may be too shocking, and Chen Huaifeng is unable to answer.
So this Sword Sect disciple just came back to his senses, looked at the gentle and elegant woman in front of him with a complicated expression, then bowed, stood up, silently passed through the bamboo room filled with the fragrance of Ningshen, and stood up again. Next to the big lake covered with fine snow.
The mountains are covered with fine snow and the lake is quiet.
The long sword was stuck by the lake, and a lot of wind and snow had fallen.
Chen Huaifeng pulled out the sword and slowly and carefully wiped off the snow on the sword.
"The Taoist Sage said that as long as there is life, there must be death."
Thirty-two years old, the Jianzong disciple who longed to marry a wife, settle down and have children in the human world remembered the conversation he had with Qing Xiang at the top of Nanyi City last year.
He is not a man who longs for immortality.
"Live slowly, die slowly." Bai Yuyao coughed softly in the bamboo house. Thinking back to when Chen Huaifeng was here just now, she had actually suppressed many injuries. The Anshen Decoction may have some cough-relieving effect, but it won't be that obvious.
"Giving the world a longer time to think about many things will naturally not violate the words of the Taoist Sage."
Chen Huaifeng looked up at the fine snow in the world.
"Is this considered a first for the world?"
Bai Yuyao chuckled softly and said: "If you don't serve the world first, you don't mean to fight. How can seeking longevity for the common people be regarded as fighting?"
Chen Huaifeng said softly: "Don't compete with others, compete with heaven and earth."
"Anyone can say anything about fighting against heaven and earth, but people from the Sword Sect can't say it."
Bai Yuyao's voice was very soft, but it didn't mean so.
Chen Huaifeng fell silent.
Yes, the Great Dao has existed for more than two thousand years.
The Taoist sect does not compete with the heaven and the earth, but the Sword Sect has always been fighting.
Mojian Cliff is such a place.
Emperor Huai, Qingyi.
Therefore, Jian Zong naturally never has any reason to refute the dispute with heaven and earth.
"How can the viewer see that health preservation is related to longevity?"
Bai Yuyao's voice was still calm: "I can't see it, but what is endless and endless is the word "nurture".
Chen Huaifeng fell silent.
The saying that a scholar dies for a confidant has always existed in the human world.
When the gentle man in the bamboo house called him husband sincerely, he was naturally shaken.
That's why he got up, left the bamboo house, and stood by the Snow Wind Lake again.
It may be extremely absurd for people from the Taoist sect to ask people from the Jianzong sect about the way to maintain health and practice pure cultivation.
It's just that in today's human world, the Great Dao has only been around for more than two thousand years. In the meantime, it has experienced several great chaos that have set back the history of the world. It is all at a loss, but it is just on the path of seeking.
Therefore, those below climb, those in the middle seek the path, and those above sit and watch.
Chen Huaifeng's thoughts were a little confused, so he stood outside the bamboo house for a long time, turned around with his sword in hand and saluted again.
"Huai Feng needs to think again."
"nothing."
Bai Yuyao coughed lightly in the bamboo house.
"Qingtian Dao will take care of Lingnan matters tomorrow."
The reason why it is not today is because today is the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Talk about the good things and not the bad things.
Chen Huaifeng said nothing more, crossed the snow bridge on the lake with his sword in his arms, and walked into the mountain snow.
...
Early morning on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
When someone in the mountains was still drinking tea and chatting.
Xu Chunhua had already brought some hot meals over. While placing those things on top of Chen He's proud poems, she woke up Chen He, who was sleeping soundly in a wheelchair wrapped in a large floral quilt. crane.
"Don't sleep, I'm bringing you something to eat."
Chen He woke up in a daze, saying thank you, thank you, happy new year, rubbing his eyes, and started eating without any ceremony.
Probably because there were too many fireworks yesterday, although the snow stopped today, everything was still foggy, not as clear as snow.
On the street not far away there were the sounds of people walking around, talking and saying New Year greetings, but there was no sign of anyone.
While Chen He was chewing on a chicken leg, he thought that although fireworks are a good thing, when he thought about it carefully, they seemed not that good.
But he didn't bother with these things.
After finishing the meal Xu Chunhua brought, he looked at the woman aside. Xu Chunhua was still wearing a small floral skirt and holding a small white umbrella, but she had probably changed her clothes.
Chen He was also curious sometimes.
It was such a cold day that he was shivering. Isn't this girl cold?
But he didn't ask either.
People who are leisurely in the world never care about those messy things.
Therefore, even if he knew that Xu Chunhua had been staying here, there was probably something wrong, Chen He didn't ask, just took a look, and planned to doze off again.
After all, he slept too late last night. If the Taoist disciple named Jiang Shanxue hadn't come to take Chen Huaifeng away, he would probably have slept a little later.
Staying up late is certainly not a big problem.
Lack of sleep is the big problem.
Just as she was wrapping herself up in quilts, she heard Xu Chunhua say melancholy at the side: "Come with me to the temple later to pay New Year's greetings."
Chen He was stunned.
Is this custom still practiced in the north?
Want to wish the spiritual community a happy New Year?
Shouldn’t the spiritual community pay New Year greetings to the world?
Xu Chunhua looked at Chen He huddled under the quilt with a questioning expression on his face, and explained: "Of course there is no need to pay New Year's greetings to Guanli in the town, but I wanted to go up and ask some questions, so I had to use the excuse of New Year's greetings."
Chen He probably understood something, and it was probably the reason why he talked too much last night, which made this small town girl plan to go up the mountain and ask where the Taoist priest had gone.
"I won't go, I'm not familiar with them." Chen He said lazily.
If you get involved with the spiritual practice world, you might get into trouble in the future.
"I'm not familiar with you either, but you've drank so much wine from my house, why don't you help me?"
Xu Chunhua said with a sigh.
Chen He just shook his head.
Then suddenly he saw a Taoist priest walking on the street. Chen He raised his hand and pointed over there.
"There is a person in the temple there, you can ask him."
Xu Chunhua turned her head and looked over there. There was indeed a Taoist priest walking there. Maybe he was wandering around, maybe he had an acquaintance at the foot of the mountain and planned to buy something to visit. He was walking along the hazy street.
Chen He thought there for a long time before he remembered that the person Chen He was talking about last night seemed to be named Jiang Shanxue. He looked at Xu Chunhua who was hesitant at the side and simply called the person over for him.
"Senior Brother Jiang!"
Jiang Shanxue, who was indeed hesitating to buy something on the street, turned around and saw the young man who had been drinking with Chen Huaifeng yesterday to celebrate the New Year, waving to him.
Although Jiang Shanxue didn't know what it meant, she still walked over in confusion.
Chen He pointed at Xu Chunhua beside him and said, "She has a little lover, a disciple in your monastery. She ran away a few days ago. I want to ask where he went so that I can find him in the future."
Jiang Mountain Here, you can go up the mountain and ask a senior brother named Chen who is carrying a sword, maybe he will know something."
Although Xu Chunhua was a little disappointed, she still nodded and said, "Thank you, Taoist Master."
Jiang Shanxue, perhaps thinking of helping others to the end, raised his hand and drew a Taoist text filled with Taoist charm, which fell into the hands of the small town girl, and said softly: "You can just go up with this and ask what you want to ask. "
It wasn't until the small town girl hesitantly went up the mountain that Chen He, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said with a strange expression: "Why doesn't this senior brother look like a good person?"
Jiang Shanxue smiled softly and said, "Maybe I'm really not a good person?"
Chen He raised his eyebrows and said, "Interesting, let me buy you a drink."
The owner of a poetry stall who was sleeping out on the street raised his hand and pointed to the small stove next to him, on which a pot of wine was being heated.
Jiang Shanxue did not shirk, took the cup, poured a glass of wine, stood on the street of Xuewu, and watched quietly.
"Speaking of which, you should know something about it."
Jiang Shanxue said softly.
Chen He thought for a while and said, "What should I know?"
"Senior Brother Xiyu was forced to go to Huaidu because of Senior Brother Huaifeng."
Chen He was stunned for a long time, and then said sincerely: "I really don't know."
Jiang Shanxue was also stunned for a moment, put down the wine glass in his hand, and said softly: "It seems that I am really not a good person."
Chen He raised his hand and patted Jiang Shanxue's shoulder, and said sincerely: "It doesn't matter. No one can make mistakes without being a sage. If there are mistakes, we can correct them and encourage them."
Jiang Shanxue turned to look at the hand on his shoulder that was still stained with some ink and oil. He didn't sweep it off, but still smiled slightly.
"OK."
.......
Some people go up the mountain, and some people are going down the mountain.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Nan Dao went to Tianshang Town.
Cao Weiying was still sitting on the ridge of that roof, looking at the world with a smile, and seemed to be deep in thought.
The young man who came with a sword on his back and an umbrella obviously interrupted many of his thoughts.
Today's young man carries a sense of parting, so the wind and snow in the town have stopped, but there is still some wind and snow under the umbrella.
That's the snow that still hasn't stopped in the canyon.
He was brought to this town by a young man.
Cao Weiying turned to look at the young man, probably a little confused.
"I'm leaving Lingnan."
Nan Dao climbed up to the ridge of the roof and sat down next to Cao Weiying. After all, it was tiring to stand on the street and look at people from under the edge of an umbrella.
"I probably won't be able to drink with you until I find the next entrance to the end of the world."
What the young man said today was a bit free and easy.
He probably wouldn't have been able to say such meaningful words in the past.
Cao Weiying turned around and smiled softly, saying, "It would be better not to come, so that you don't bother me every day."
Nan Dao smiled and said, "Is it really that annoying?"
Cao Weiying tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "Think about it, you are sitting alone in the sea of flowers, sitting under the peach tree, drinking wine, looking at the Yunya Lake, imagining your own world, but there is always someone running over. ——Cao Weiying, what happened to me today! Do you think it will bother you?"
Nan Dao raised his head and looked at Cao Weiying, a town that was now more like a human being than before. Then he took off the wine bottle, took a sip and said, "I thought you would also enjoy it."
Cao Weiying said with a smile: "Although some people may be like this, I am really not. I don't want to see the messy things in your world. If someone hadn't sent you to me, I wouldn't be bothered to care about those things. "
"Is the person you are talking about the Congren Sect Master?"
Cao Weiying laughed, stood up, stepped over to the next eaves of the town, held her own wine gourd and drank, and then walked gracefully along the line of flat roof ridges.
"Otherwise, it can still be the Laughter in the Bush?"
Cao Weiying's rhetorical question makes sense.
Nan Dao also smiled and stepped towards the eaves of the town with Cao Weiying.
The world looks like a happy New Year, but the sky is clear and clear. The snow that the South Island brought to the town has stopped. The green tiles under the roof are covered with some scattered white snow. There are also some peach blossoms flying from the lake and various petals in the sea of flowers.
The fireworks were fake. No one in the town had thought about obtaining immortality through alchemy, and no magical things had been discovered yet. Therefore, although there were many flowers, leaves and white snow on the roof, it was still clean.
The two of them drank wine and walked along the ridge of the house until they crossed the intersecting long streets and stopped at the exit of the town before sitting down again.
It was still early, so the town was very quiet.
The old dog crouched below, also asleep.
The tabby cat jumped lightly among the snow eaves, and then landed on the eaves where the two were staying. It curled up its tail and sat down, turning its head and licking the fur on its back.
A little black dog ran out of the town restlessly.
"Let me guess, you came here to tell me something."
Nan Dao stood aside, looking at Cao Weiying who was sitting there and said with a smile.
Cao Weiying sat on the edge of the roof swaying her legs, drinking wine and looking into the distance quietly, and then said with a smile: "Obviously, you were wrong from the beginning, I didn't plan to say anything."
Nan Dao stood quietly under the umbrella for a while, then looked back at the civet cat that was still licking the fur on its back. He thought about it and said, "Then what are we doing here?"
Cao Weiying said with a smile: "Yes, then what are we doing here?"
The South Island looks far away, just like it did on the cliff.
There are clouds and mist above the distant mountains and the big lake, and leisurely cloud shadows are falling in the sky. There is a peach tree by the lake, shaking its petals, and there is wind in the sea of flowers, blowing the fragrance everywhere. A little closer is a trail, with local dogs walking and stopping on it, and then there is a town with the aftertaste of snow and excitement, and two people in the town who look like teenagers sitting and standing in different places.
So in fact, what Cao Weiying wanted to say had already been finished when he sat down.
It's a very simple two words.
Sit back and watch.
Nan Dao thought quietly for a long time and said, "I still don't quite understand this truth."
Cao Weiying smiled slightly and said, "You'll understand when you stand taller."
"good."
Nan Dao didn't say anything else, jumped off the roof and stepped on the path they were looking at before.
I rubbed the little local dog’s head, walked through the sea of flowers, passed the big lake, and then walked into the mist of Yunya Lake.
...
When Lu Xiaosan woke up, Nan Dao was not there, nor was Lu Xiaoer. Even Lu Xiaosi and Lu Xiaowu were missing.
Although the little boy was a little confused, he didn't care. He woke up Le Chaotian in front of the stove and sincerely invited him to set off firecrackers together.
Although Le Chaotian refused because the sound of firecrackers was too rough and inconsistent with the music, he planned to continue sleeping in.
But in the end, the young boy couldn't hold back his excitement today and was dragged down the canyon.
Lu Xiaoer's whereabouts were known, and the young boy kept the sword in Xiaobai Waterfall with a guilty conscience and sincerity.
When they saw Le Chaotian and Lu Xiaosan walking down, they both pretended to be deep in trance and didn't hear anything.
Lu Xiaosan didn't wake up Lu Xiaoer after calling several times, so he dragged Le Chaotian over angrily.
There were some footprints in the snow of Xiaobai Jianzong. Lu Xiaosan thought it was a bit strange, but scaring Le Chaotian was the most important thing, so he didn't pay attention to it and pulled Le Chaotian, who was still awake, towards a tree next to Jianzong.
Those footprints went under other trees, as if they were looking for something.
Lu Xiaosan took a quick look, but didn't think much about it. He excitedly asked Le Chaotian to wait there, then stuck his buttocks out and started digging at the slush on the ground.
I just dug and dug and stood there stunned.
Le Chaotian was probably also curious about why Lu Xiaosan, who was obviously ill-intentioned, suddenly started to be in a daze, so he lazily came over, then looked at the finger-sized firecrackers inside, and said with a strange expression: "This is what you said A big firecracker?”
Lu Xiaosan shook his head, flicked the small firecracker in his hand, and continued digging.
"No, no, that's not it!"
Le Chaotian yawned and was too lazy to pay attention to the nervous Lu Xiaosan. He was going to find a room in Xiaobai Sword Sect to catch up on some sleep.
Just when he started to take steps, he froze there.
Two young boys were walking in the snow outside the woodshed not far away, holding a lit firewood. They were holding some firecrackers as thick as their arms, with puzzled faces on their faces.
"How did it get so big?"
"Did it get soaked in water and then get bigger?"
"I don't know, senior brother, why don't you order one to try first?"
"But why is the lead so long?"
"The firecrackers have become bigger after being soaked in water, so it's natural for the fuses to become longer."
The little boy Lu Xiaowu said, feeling that what he said made sense, and then he carefully raised the lit firewood in his hand and lit it towards the rope.
Lu Xiaosan, who heard the two voices, also realized something. He stuck out his butt and turned his head to look at his two junior brothers, with a look of horror on his face.
"It's over!"
