Had some tea and chatted.
Si Lingxi also heard the story of Shen Ying giving Lu Zheng his skills, Lu Zheng saving Shen Ying from trouble, Shen Ying helping Lu Zheng eliminate demons, and Lu Zheng helping Shen Ying build a temple.
"Recipe, Shining!"
Si Lingxi smiled and said, "I went to the Central Plains the year before last and happened to encounter a peach blossom temple. I knew this poem. Unfortunately, that temple was not where your body was. I was a little curious at the time, but I didn't expect that I would be rewarded today. As you wish.”
Shen Ying raised her glass to Si Lingxi from afar, "I am honored to be favored by my senior."
Taoist Wan Song nodded and said with a smile, "That's because you are extraordinary. Otherwise, how could it be so easy to use poetry as the source and align with the way of heaven?
Just like Liu Xiaoyou, if he didn't have an extraordinary state of mind, he wouldn't be able to obtain this merit. "
Liu Qingyan smiled sweetly, "But if it weren't for Lu Lang's gift of books, Qingyan wouldn't be where she is today."
In order for Lu Zheng to gain face in front of Taoist Wansong, Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying praised him as rare in heaven and rare on earth, which made Lu Zheng feel a little embarrassed.
Did I actually do so many things?
…
We all have profound Taoist practices, and it is okay to go without rest or sleep for a long time, but this is naturally inconsistent with the rotation of the sun and the moon and the way of heaven.
Therefore, except for discussions of magic and fighting or some irresistible things, even the top masters still maintain a routine of working from sunrise to sunset for most of their daily lives.
Even if you don't sleep at night just to practice or rest, you still have to maintain this habit.
This habit is actually a kind of mental cultivation, neither arrogant nor impetuous, neither hasty nor slow.
So when it got late, everyone stopped drinking tea and chatting.
Taoist Wan Song hid in the old pine trees on the top of the mountain, while Si Lingxi went to meditate and rest on the boulder on the top of another mountain. Of course, Lu Zheng and his two wives had to find a place to rest.
Fortunately, there are many cave houses on Wansong Mountain. There are stone tables, stone benches, stone beds, stone shelves, and even stone urns and stone bowls. Apart from the fact that there are no beddings, you can really move in with your bags.
Lu Zheng found a relatively large cave at the corner of a bamboo forest and stream halfway up the mountain. He cleared away the dust in the cave with his hands, poured water over the furniture in the cave, then used the Light Spell as the light source in the cave, and finally took out the bedding. , cups and a change of clothes.
In the blink of an eye, this cave has been completed enough for temporary residence.
…
The next day, sunrise.
Lu Zheng took Shen Ying and Liu Qingyan to the top of a certain mountain.
"Watching the sunrise in the mountains of Southern Xinjiang is completely different from watching it in the Central Plains," Shen Ying said.
Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan nodded.
Both of them have been to Southern Xinjiang before, Lu Zheng has traveled more, Liu Qingyan has also been to Dingfeng Mountain and seen the sunrise in Southern Xinjiang. Only Shen Ying, this is the first time to go deep into Southern Xinjiang.
I saw the golden sun rising from the horizon, its golden light shining through the clouds and fog.
As far as the eye can see, there is a sea of clouds above, with thousands of rays of sunshine and soaring birds; below there are mountains and mountains with floating haze and thousands of trees competing for their glory.
"So beautiful!" Shen Ying said.
Lu Zheng nodded, "The red sun is rising, its path is bright."
Liu Qingyan asked, "Is this the "Sunrise Picture" that Lu Lang painted last time?"
Lu Zheng nodded and took out a picture from the gourd. It was the picture he drew when he came to Wansong Mountain last time. After returning, he showed it to Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying.
"It does look very similar."
"Exactly the same."
Shen Ying and Liu Qingyan looked at the picture, then at the scenery in front of them, and praised them in unison.
After admiring it for a moment, the sun finally reached the highest point in the sky, and the glow of the misty clouds gradually dissipated, leaving the sky and the earth bright.
"Okay, I've finished watching the sunrise. Let's go back and have breakfast." Lu Zheng said.
"breakfast?"
Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying looked at each other, and then Liu Qingyan asked Lu Zheng, "Did you have breakfast when you came to Wansong Mountain?"
Lu Zheng couldn't help but sigh, "Not to mention breakfast, there is no lunch or dinner. Fortunately, I was able to live without food at that time, otherwise I might have starved to death here."
"hehe……"
There was a chuckle from the side, but Si Lingxi had already arrived not far away.
She didn't deliberately hide her whereabouts, and Lu Zheng didn't deliberately whisper, so she naturally heard what Lu Zheng said.
"In addition to drinking tea and occasionally eating pine nuts, Old Pine Tree probably has never eaten anything in his life." Si Lingxi said with a smile, "Do you want to make breakfast? Prepare one for me."
"No problem, do you have any taboos, senior?" Lu Zheng replied.
"No." Si Lingxi shook her head, "You can do whatever you want."
"Okay!" Lu Zheng nodded.
Then we piled rocks into the stove, took pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, chopped green onions, picked two mushrooms on the spot, and finally took a handful of noodles bought in Modern Times.
"Eat something light in the morning and make some noodles in sour soup. At noon, I will go down the mountain to hunt some game. By the way, do seniors eat meat?" Lu Zheng asked.
"Eat." Si Lingxi nodded, watching Lu Zheng skillfully chopping vegetables and cooking, and asked curiously, "You can also cook, you seem to be good at it?"
Lu Zheng admitted, "It's not bad, definitely better than ordinary people."
"Then let's make a roasted snake for lunch." Si Lingxi said, "I have been to the Central Plains several times, and not many people eat snakes, and my skills are average."
"Okay!" Lu Zheng nodded, originally guessing that Si Lingxi might be a great demon with Phoenix bloodline, but when it comes to eating snakes, it sounds a bit like a roc.
Could it be that he is of mixed race?
While chatting casually, he took out tables, stools, porcelain bowls and wooden chopsticks from the gourd.
Soon, four bowls of steaming, fragrant sour soup noodles were ready. Because they used freshly picked mushrooms from Wansong Mountain, the sourness had a refreshing fragrance, which made you appetizing.
"Not bad!" Si Lingxi narrowed her eyes slightly and nodded in praise. Her chopstick movements were dignified and elegant, but her speed was not slow at all.
"Gurgling..."
After several people finished eating the noodles, they all picked up their bowls to drink soup. When they finally put their bowls down, they found that everyone's bowls were empty.
The four of them couldn't help but smile at each other. Lu Zheng and the others also felt that Si Lingxi was closer to her, and no longer felt alienated from yesterday.
…
A moment later, when Lu Zheng cleaned up the stove and dishes, a wave of spiritual energy flashed across the old pine tree on the top of the mountain.
"Little friend Lu, how about a hand-to-hand chat?"
"Coming!"
So Si Lingxi took the lead, followed by Lu Zheng and the two girls, and then came to the top of Wansong Mountain.
…
After one game, Taoist Wan Song had no intention of playing any more. Instead, he called Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan aside and started talking about the "Red Song Zi Zuo Jie Jade Water Alchemy Sutra".
On the other side, Si Lingxi took Shen Ying away. While asking about things in the Central Plains, they came to the foot of the mountain. During a walk, they caught three big snakes that were more than one foot long and as thick as a fist.
