Song Yu couldn't enjoy the lack of spiritual energy, but after hearing this, he remembered something: "Yun Lang, that's the kid who came with us. Will he live here in the future?"
Although Yunlang's meridians are not conducive to cultivation according to Jie Nanshi, having enough spiritual energy is definitely better than not having one at all.
Seeing that Song Yu finally spoke, the young disciple answered quickly, with obvious happiness in his tone: "My young nephew still needs to pass the assessment and formally become a disciple before he can move into the main peak."
Nephew? Song Yu couldn't help but look at the young man twice. I thought that Xie Nanshi had found someone at random, and he could choose someone with a calm personality to avoid being led astray by him, but he didn't expect that this little disciple with an unspectacular appearance was quite senior. It seems to be as big as Yunlang.
But seniority is seniority, age is here, no matter how calm your mind is, you can't avoid being childish. Even because you have been practicing in the mountains since you were a child, you have never experienced any beatings from outsiders. He was already infinitely curious about Song Yu, an outsider, but this person who seemed so easy to get along with was always smiling and saying nothing...
Little did he know that this was Song Yu's deliberate move. Song Yu just saw that this young boy had a nature of gossip and was bound by the Zangfeng sect's rules. What he wanted was to use the name of "information exchange" to get rid of the NPC's information after a wave of suppression.
But it has to be said that this young man's character is already very tough. Song Yu had already seen the bamboo house not far away. The young man's face was full of anxiety. He hesitated to speak several times, but he held it back.
Seeing that they were almost there, a trace of disappointment flashed in the young man's eyes. He had missed many opportunities to speak out along the way, and asking about his relationship with his peak master at this moment... was obviously inappropriate and untimely.
Turning around, he saw that Song Yu seemed a little confused about the bamboo house. In order to protect the image of his peak master, the young man mustered up the courage to speak again: "Although this place looks simple and uninhabited since the peak master left, Sasao has never been there. It's fallen. The environment is even more peaceful, Mr. Song can live here with peace of mind, and Zang Feng will not neglect his distinguished guests."
"I didn't say that Peak Master Jie had any bad intentions." Song Yu was happy at the sight. He narrowed his eyes and started his daily routine, "Do you think your Peak Master will treat his friends badly?"
The young man chewed the word "friend" secretly, and felt that the relationship between Song Yu and Xie Nanshi was obviously more than that. After all, Song Yu seemed to have no cultivation at first glance, and was just an ordinary personal friend. He was placed in Jinshui Town. That’s it.
What's more, the distinguished guest misunderstood the peak master. The young man quickly argued: "Our peak master is naturally not that kind of person. Master said that the peak master's talent is rare in a thousand years and will definitely bring Zang Feng to new heights!"
When the young man said this, his face was full of admiration. Song Yu also nodded: "I think so too. Nan Shi's swordsmanship and wisdom are far beyond ordinary people."
He followed the boy's wishes, and also intended to make the title between himself and Xie Nanshi seem more intimate, which indirectly hinted at the close relationship between himself and Xie Nanshi. The young man was obviously relaxed a lot, but what made him most happy were Song Yu's words. No matter who Song Yu is, as long as he speaks well of Xie Nanshi, he is one of his own.
A smile appeared on the young man's face: "That's natural."
Song Yu had another question: "Your name is Yunlang, nephew, and he is Xiaodao... Nanshi's disciple. Are you his junior brother?"
"In terms of seniority, yes." The young man didn't know why. He couldn't figure out whether Song Yu was just asking casually or whether he was intending to explore the inside of Jiange.
But Song Yu was very happy: "Then can I call you junior brother? Or do you have someone younger below you?"
"I'm not young anymore." The boy's eyes widened a bit, and he obviously didn't want to be treated as a child. This is common for people of their age.
"Okay, then I'll call you junior brother to Nan Shi." Song Yu continued before the boy protested again, "Junior brother, your peak master hasn't come back very often in these years, and you still protect him like this? You guys used to see each other often ?"
Song Yu's conversation was very fast. The young man didn't have time to think carefully about whether Song Yu should call him that. He also felt that he knew Xie Nanshi's whereabouts over the years and indeed had a special relationship with the peak master, so his mouth had already followed his rhythm and said: " That's not the case. The Peak Master is a proud man, so he naturally has a lot to worry about. The Peak Master has not come back since he came down from the mountain more than two years ago. Counting today, the Peak Master and I have only met eight times."
Are the times counted so accurately? It seems that Xie Nanshi is really liked and admired by people here. Song Yu looked at this junior brother with some sympathy. However, for the junior brother, Xie Nanshi has not returned for two years, but for Xie Nanshi, this time he has returned to Jiange after seven years.
No wonder he had so many emotions along the way.
After satisfying a wave of curiosity, the younger junior brother obviously spoke less, but his movements were much lighter and more comfortable, and he soon led Song Yu to the bamboo house.
"This is the main house, the residence of the Peak Master." The junior brother pointed to the side, and Song Yu realized that the yard was quite large, and there was a row of small rooms behind it. Farewell."
"So fast?" Song Yu was still a little unsure whether he had dug out all the information on his junior brother, and planned to leave someone to sit there and serve some pastries and candies to see if he could bribe him some more. However, seeing that the young disciple's heart was like an arrow, he wished he could fly back to recover his life, so he refused to keep him. He only asked at the last minute: "Which elder is your master?"
"Great Elder Yan Rui." The younger junior brother suddenly became serious. It seems that this master... is a bit strict.
Great elder? Song Yu recalled the group of people who greeted Xie Nanshi at the Immortal Gate today. In the middle was a crane-haired elder. His age could not be seen on his face, but there were deep Sichuan-shaped lines on his forehead and some spots at the corners of his eyes. With horizontal stripes, one looks at him as a very serious person.
But this person has such a high opinion of Jie Nanshi. It seems that this Jiange... Zangfeng is really united.
After all, he had just visited someone else's "home". Song Yu did not wander around, but chose the guest room next to the main room to rest and wait for Xie Nanshi to come back for further discussion.
This Zangfeng looks vaguely immortal, but the wing room on the main peak is very simple, with normal tables and chairs, except for an extra futon on the bed for the disciples to meditate. Overall, there is only one word to describe it - simplicity.
Yes, he has a calm demeanor that neither takes pleasure in things nor feels sorrow for himself. Should he be said to be a fairy in the eyes of the world? No wonder Jie Nanshi was raised so cold.
Although Xie Nanshi seems to have been led away a little by himself at this moment.
It was already night when Xie Nanshi came back. He was still carrying a food box in his hand and entered the courtyard alone without holding a lamp. He did not go back to his room, but came to the door of the wing, which was lit by candlelight, and knocked.
The door opened immediately: "Hey, here we come."
After returning here and spending a long time with the elders, Xie Nanshi felt a little uncomfortable with Song Yu's enthusiasm for a while, and he paused for a moment. Song Yu didn't seem to notice it at all, so he took the food basket and started arranging the dishes on the only small wooden table in the room. By the time Xie Nanshi crossed the threshold, Song Yu had already set up a full table...huh? Full table?
There were only two people setting the meal, and Xie Nanshi only carried three dishes, which was still a lot. And thinking about Song Yu’s taste, they also brought simple and light vegetarian dishes. But at this moment, it seems that it’s just green onions mixed with tofu and fried eggs. Stir-fried broad beans, lotus seeds and lilies, steamed pumpkin, radish, bean sprouts and tofu mixed with winter vegetables...
Good guy, regardless of the season or not, one table can be set up all year round?
While Song Yu was waiting, he did eat something to satisfy his hunger, but still left some food for Xie Nanshi. At this time, he hurriedly called to Xie Nanshi: "Add some food. This is your first meal back in Zangfeng. It's more generous." It should be."
"Plenty, order?" Xie Nanshi bit the last word emphatically.
Song Yu had already started to move his chopsticks.
But...they are all side dishes. Xie Nanshi had no objection.
After eating for a while, Xie Nanshi found that something was not right. Song Yu was focusing on the side dishes he had brought with him, and didn't touch the ones he brought at all. After hesitating for a while, he still took a piece for Song Yu: "This is Zangfeng's special cold seed. It is fresh and refreshing. You will like it if you try it."
Song Yu held the bowl and was silent for a moment: "Is there a possibility that it's not that I don't eat because I don't know what these are, but that I can't eat them?"
Xie Nanshi was speechless, but the confusion on his forehead was obvious.
Song Yu had no choice but to lament, while tasting green onions and tofu, while explaining to Xie Nanshi that food was hierarchical in his eyes. As he talked, Song Yu also found it a bit funny. He and Xie Nanshi had known each other for so long and had lived together for a long time, but he had not yet revealed to the other party his dietary choices.
Speaking of this... he really became more and more sad and angry the more he talked about it.
Xie Nanshi also gradually changed from expressionless to helpless. After Song Yu finished complaining for a long time, he moved the tips of his chopsticks and then asked: "So you eat lightly, not for the sake of abstinence and self-restraint?"
"Didn't I say it? I was beaten to death by the system." Song Yu was very resentful. "Although the dishes you sent look simple and light, there is either a problem with the grade of the ingredients or the chef who made them." The art level is not low, so I can’t move any of them. It’s not because I’m brushing you off out of kindness.”
Xie Nanshi pursed his lips and said "hmm", then suddenly asked: "In your world, can you eat anything?"
Song Yu was stunned for a moment. This seems to be the first time since Qinghe Town that Xie Nanshi has taken the initiative to ask him about the world.
As if reading the confusion in Song Yu's heart, Xie Nanshi forced a smile: "Your resurrection from the dead made me... really feel that you are a different person. I was thinking, Elder Ran met you this time , it may also be his opportunity.”
"Have you wanted to ask me this for a long time?" After all, Taoist priest Sui Sui has been dead for a long time. If it weren't for Song Yu's backpack along the way, he might have died.
Xie Nanshi also found it difficult to answer. He didn't get along well with Elder Sui Sui. Although he was shocked when Elder Sui Sui sacrificed his body to the formation, he also understood that death is destiny. When the first seven days of Song Dynasty came back, he had not thought about it yet.
But just now when he entrusted the body to the ossuary, and saw the expressions on the faces of the disciples from Elder Random's lineage, he suddenly felt that maybe he didn't have to follow destiny in everything.
Song Yu didn't know how to explain it. In his world, he might be able to resurrect Taoist Priest Sui and ask Anshi Technology to modify the data. But judging from the plot of the first and second episodes, the character of Taoist Sui was born to die for Yongxi Prefecture.
So Song Yu had no choice but to say: "Sorry."
