The group of people were engrossed in the music. Ye Ming and Taoist Chongzhun did not disturb their enjoyment. Seeing a clean bluestone nearby, they sat on the bluestone and enjoyed the music.
After a long time, the string music ended, and everyone remained still, as if they were savoring the aftertaste.
After a while, these few finally came back to their senses.
The woman from the Wuyin Cult has a pretty appearance and simple attire, giving people a girl-next-door feel.
"Stringing songs attract wise people. I don't want to wait for me to play music today. It also attracts close friends. It is a good thing."
Hearing what the girl next door said, the other seven people also looked at Ye Ming and the two.
Seeing them all looking over, Ye Ming smiled and said:
"I'm the Lord of Yanhua Prefecture, Ye Ming. This is the Taoist Priest of Zhengxuanmen Chongzhun. The two of us were passing through this place and heard this elegant music, which made us very happy. I have ventured to come here. Please forgive me."
The eldest among the seven is a man who looks to be in his forties. His popularity is extraordinary and he gives people a sense of greatness and stability.
"It turns out that the righteous god who has brought blessings to this place and the disciples of the famous sect are here. It's a pleasure to meet you, a pleasure to meet you!"
After the two parties greeted each other, the woman also introduced herself:
"The little girl is the master of Yuzi Pavilion of Wuyin Sect, Yu Linngle."
The other seven people also reported their names and called themselves "bamboo forest idlers". According to their age, they can be called big idlers, second idlers to small idlers.
After hearing the other party's introduction, Taoist Chongzhun would follow what others said and call them "idlers".
Ye Ming reacted quickly, blocked his words, and called the seven of them "sir."
Among these seven people, the elder looked to be in his forties, and the youngest looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Really, dating does not depend on age, only based on emotion.
After the two sides communicated for a while, Ye Ming and the two finally understood.
These seven idlers have been in the mountains and forests for a long time, wandering around with clouds and wild cranes, focusing on the mountains and rivers without caring about worldly affairs. Yu Lingle came here to invite a few people to come out of the mountains and join the Wuyin Sect.
It's just that the ambitions of the seven people are not in the mortal world, and they have never agreed.
Yu Lingye also persevered, so he stayed here and discussed the Tao with the seven people, hoping to impress them.
After a break in the performance, Yu Lingyue clapped her hands gently, and a waiter from the Wuyin Cult served everyone outside with food and wine to entertain everyone.
In addition to delicious food and wine, it also comes with five stone powder.
The seven people were obviously used to the food sent by the other party. After thanking each other, they ate without any scruples.
The third gentleman was a heavy drinker. When he saw the wine, his eyes lit up. He unsealed the whole jar and drank it while holding it.
Yu Lingle smiled slightly and said:
"Mr. Bolen is good at wine. Our Pentayin Cult can provide all kinds of fine wines in the world. As long as he is interested in joining our sect, he will never be disappointed."
Mr. Third held the wine jar and drank heavily, as if he had not heard what Yu Lingle said. He just happily enjoyed the wine in front of him and did not answer.
Mr. Fourth is a bit more elegant when it comes to drinking. He drinks from a toast.
After taking a sip of wine and saying "good wine", he picked up a pill of Five Stone Powder and was about to drink it.
Seeing this, Taoist Chongzhun immediately shouted:
"Hold on, this medicine is harmful and should not be taken!"
With this shout, the originally warm atmosphere at the scene suddenly stopped, and everyone looked at Taoist Chongzhun together.
In this regard, Taoist Chongzhun only thought that his words were effective, and he was relieved when he saw that Mr. Four had not yet taken the Five Stone Powder.
Mr. Fourth glanced at the pill in his hand, then looked at Taoist Chongzhun and said:
"Taoist Priest, are you saying that I can't take the elixir in my hand?"
"Yes, this Five Stone Powder is harmful to people, so you must not take it!"
Hearing Taoist Chongzhun's words, Yu Lingle, who was like the girl next door, suddenly puffed up her cheeks with dissatisfaction and said:
"Taoist Priest, although you are a well-known and upright person, please be careful with your words. If you say that my elixir teaching is harmful without any reason, you must at least provide evidence."
Upon hearing this, Master Chongzhun immediately said:
"Your elixir makes the whole body feel hot. It's easy to become addicted. It also has side effects. How can it not be harmful?"
Hearing what Master Chongzhun said, Yu Lingle said with some embarrassment:
"This elixir itself is extremely positive, and it is normal for the body to feel feverish. As for the side effects, can you ask some gentlemen if they care about it?"
These words made Taoist Chongzhun stunned and he couldn't help but look at a few people.
The fourth gentleman smiled, took the five-stone powder, and said loudly:
“Such side effects are not a problem for us and can be easily resolved.
Besides, sometimes it’s actually not bad not to resolve it! "
Several other people agreed with Mr. Fourth's point of view and laughed together in a way that all men understand.
Yu Lingle said with some anger:
"Guys, when you say something, please pay attention to your surroundings. The little girl is still here!"
When everyone heard this, they all laughed and expressed that they would pay attention.
Seeing that everyone didn't care about this matter, I was a little anxious to rush to Taoist Master, but I didn't know how to refute, so I subconsciously looked at Ye Ming beside me.
It's hard for Ye Ming to talk about this, because the problems currently exposed by Wu Shi Powder are, to be honest, not serious.
Many people even go there because of the side effects of this elixir. Before it exposes other more serious flaws, it may not be easy for everyone to reject it.
Especially since the seven people in front of them had already accepted this elixir preconceivedly.
And preconceived ideas are extremely difficult to change.
Everyone ignored Taoist Chongquan's advice and told them to eat and drink when they should.
After taking Wushi Powder, everyone's whole body felt warm, and they felt as if they were about to ascend to immortality. They felt extremely happy.
The seven people, who were already free and uninhibited, each took off their outer robes, got drunk, sang, and played the harp and sheng.
Among them, Mr. Third was the most unruly. He drank several bottles of wine and got very drunk. First he took off his shirtless clothes, then his pants, and sang loudly in the forest.
Yu Ling was happy to see this and stayed away, not to look at this unsightly sight.
The young gentleman who looked like a young man politely came to Yu Lingle with a wine glass and said:
"Sister Yu, let me toast you."
Seeing this person approaching him, Yu Lingle's eyes moved, he nodded shyly, and clinked glasses with him.
"Mr. Jun Chong, do you want to join our Wuyin Cult?"
When the young gentleman heard this, he first glanced at the other gentlemen. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he whispered:
"It's not impossible to join your sect, but I wonder if I can join you, Sister Yu?"
Hearing what this young gentleman said, Yu Lingle's expression moved slightly and he slightly distanced himself:
"I teach music as the main focus. If a young student joins the teaching, it will naturally depend on which one of the five pavilions is suitable for him to be assigned."
"Is that so..."
When the young gentleman heard this, he drank all the wine in his glass.
"I still like an unfettered life."
After saying that, he returned to the crowd and played the piano and sang together.
Yu Lingle secretly observed everyone again and saw Mr. Fourth sitting sideways and playing the piano very casually, so he took the initiative to approach and said:
"The sound contains sorrow and music, and the music reveals true feelings. The five tones harmonize and rhyme, and you are destined to listen to it.
Mr. Shuye's piano music is most suitable for the little girl. I wonder if Mr. Shuye is interested in joining the religion? "
Mr. Fourth heard this and said loudly:
"I'm afraid I can't get along with your sect. Your sect believes that the sound has sorrow and joy, but I think that the sound has no sorrow or joy."
"There is no sound of sorrow or joy? Mr. Shu Ye is joking. If there is no sound of sorrow or joy, then how can we explain that everyone will be sad when they hear sorrow and joy, and they will be happy when they hear joy?"
"This is the sorrow and joy of people, not the sorrow and joy of sounds.
I believe that there is no sorrow or joy in the sound, but there is sorrow and joy in people.
The purpose of sound is only to elicit sorrow and joy in people's hearts.
Sad music itself does not belong to the theory of sound and music. "
"Mr. Shu Ye, your idea is a bit biased. It is the sound of sorrow and joy that can arouse the sorrow and joy of people's hearts. If there is no sound of sorrow and joy, how can the sorrow and joy of people's hearts be aroused?"
"No, the sorrow and joy of the human heart are living water..."
I originally planned to persuade the other party to join Christianity, but after a few words, it turned into a discussion about Taoism.
Taoist Chongzhun who was sitting and watching saw this and said:
"This fourth gentleman's intellectual judgment is really novel and quite reasonable."
Ye Ming also agreed with this statement, and at the same time he did not forget to eat the food and wine brought by the Wuyin Cult waiter.
Seeing this, Master Chongzhun opened his mouth and said:
"Zhengshen, do you dare to eat the food and wine of the Wuyin Sect?"
Ye Ming smiled indifferently:
“Don’t worry, there’s just something wrong with the Five Stone Powder, the food and wine are all normal.
Come, try it too, their cooking skills are really good! "
Although Ye Ming confirmed that the food and wine were fine, Taoist Chongquan was still worried and determined not to move.
At this time, Mr. Third, who was very drunk and stripped naked, stumbled to Taoist Chongzhun, hugged Taoist Chongzhun, and said with a smell of alcohol:
"Taoist Priest, you must also be a wine lover, right?"
"A poor man can only have a few drinks, and he doesn't count as a lover of wine."
"Liar, you lied, I can smell it. You have perfect ingredients for making wine, right?"
"Can you smell this?"
Upon hearing this, Taoist Chongzhun looked at the third gentleman with surprise.
“That’s right, nothing related to wine in the world can escape my nose.
Taoist Priest, you have some good wine-making ingredients, how can you hide them and not take them out as soon as possible? "
"I'm afraid this won't work. I do have ingredients for making wine, but these are reserved for Senior Brother Jing'an."
"Where is your senior brother? He must be a good drinker too. Come on, invite him over. I want to discuss wine with him!"
"Senior brother is busy right now, so I'm afraid he won't have time to come here."
“No time, it’s a pity, that’s a pity.
No, I'm free. I'm free every day. Wherever your senior brother is, I'll find him right now! "
"Mr. Bolan, I think it's best for you to take a nap now and wait until you wake up."
"Sleep? What kind of sleep? When you die, you will have time to sleep. The most important thing is to get drunk!"
Mr. Third said, taking another big gulp of wine, and then fell to the ground drunk, unconscious.
Seeing that this person had such a free and easy temperament, Taoist Chongquan was a little suspicious of who was the quiet and inactive one.
Among the people, Mr. Da was the most sober. He raised his glass and came to Ye Ming and said:
"We, the common people in the mountains, have nothing to contribute to the world. Fortunately, we have a god like Zhengshen to protect the world, so that we can make the people happy. I would like to drink a cup of Zhengshen."
"It's a great honor for me to be praised by Mr. Juyuan, please!"
"please!"
The two toasted to each other and started chatting.
Ye Ming discovered that this person was different from the others and was not really indifferent to worldly affairs.
During the conversation, it can be seen that this person has a very clear understanding of current world affairs, and he also has his own opinions.
This banquet lasted for a long time, and Mr. Second, Mr. Three, Mr. Six, etc. all fell drunk and fell asleep.
Yu Lingle discussed the matter with Mr. Fourth for a long time, but could not decide the winner.
But at the end, it was obvious that Yu Lingle seemed a little angry.
Obviously he was very upset about not being able to convince Mr. Fourth.
After the banquet, Yu Lingle stood up, bowed to everyone and said:
"My little lady has been here for nearly a month, and I admire the elegance and indifference of these gentlemen.
Knowing that I couldn't persuade a few people at that time, I stopped staying here and left today.
Everyone, if you are interested in joining the religion, we welcome you at any time. "
After saying that, he bowed again and ordered the waiters to clean up the scene.
Upon hearing this, the young gentleman stepped forward excitedly and said:
"Sister Yu, there are no restrictions here. Why don't you stay here for a few more days?"
"The little girl understands Mr. Junchong's kindness, but there are still many things going on in the Wuyin Sect.
Delaying the past few months here is already the limit, and there can be no further delay. "
When the young gentleman heard this, he glanced at Yu Lingle and felt moved.
He just glanced at the people behind him again and didn't say anything more, he just stepped back.
Mr. Da sent Yu Lingle and others off politely and thoughtfully.
