The six people were very happy to see that the fairy actually had wine.
In the past three years, I have never heard the fairy say that a thing as unnatural as Zhu Qingguo can also make wine. If a mortal drinks this, he will not become an immortal immediately!
By the time the fairy finished speaking these words, she had tears in her eyes. Only six people realized that this was a farewell drink. No wonder that in recent days, the fairies have been urging everyone to practice one kind of Taoist magic, sometimes feeling depressed, and sometimes showing little interest. It turns out that the fairy wants to drive everyone away.
Three years passed quickly.
The six people panicked for a moment, and Qingyang Yanran burst into tears and threw herself on the fairy: "Sister Su Su, I don't want to leave!"
The other five people were also in tears.
Not a master and a disciple, but better than a master and a disciple. How could we let go of the relationship between master and disciple for three years!
Tianchenzi and others were masters and disciples for three years, and then drifted eastward. Fairy Bai and everyone have been masters and disciples for another three years, but six of them are about to leave Fairy Bai.
Why is it that in the long journey to immortality, there are always fewer people getting together and more separation?
The seven people just cried silently.
Fairy Bai stroked the beautiful hair in her arms and choked with sobs for a long time.
"Drink!" Fairy Bai ordered everyone.
Bowl after bowl, after drinking, the wine automatically flew into the bowl, and each person drank three bowls in a row.
The wine and tears were swallowed down.
In the blink of an eye, there was no wine left in the Zhuqing wine jar.
"After my benefactor comes out of the cave...please destroy the stone cave for me!"
"From today onwards, I will guard Wushan Cave and attack the realm of immortals!"
"If one day my benefactor meets Master by chance, please tell her:"
"Everything is well, Su Su! Waiting for Fairy Yao's triumphant return!"
"Let's say goodbye! Go benefactor!"
When Fairy Bai said this, she waved her jade hand, and the wind and cloud suddenly rose. The six people were directly pushed to a white cloud in the sky.
The six people cried bitterly and hurriedly prostrated themselves in the clouds.
"I will obey Master Bai's decree!"
"We will inherit the ambition of the two masters and seek fate in the East China Sea!"
After the six people knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, they turned around and wiped away their tears, released their golden swords, and fired towards the already opened door to the sky.
Seeing the six people leaving, Bai Susu shed the last two lines of tears.
Looking at Yuan Zhen and Yan Ran's leaving figures, their expressions were complicated.
"Once upon a time, the sea was vast, but Wushan was not like clouds. I hope you will stand upright as soon as possible."
Fairy Bai murmured to herself, turned around and walked towards the cave.
…
The six of them carried Qiankun bags, which were filled with vermilion fruits picked from various caves before winter. Stepping on the golden sword, pass through the giant gate in the sky.
The giant door slowly closed, and the six people turned back and took one last look at Wushan Cave Heaven.
Immediately before falling into the big lake, the golden sword turned around and struggled through the layers of clouds and mist in the sky, reaching outside the White Fairy Cave and standing in front of the stone-cut cave.
The six people flew into the stone-hewn cave. There were still ashes in the stove and two taels of silver standing on the stove.
Yanran walked into Bai Xianzi's boudoir, waved her hands, and several pieces of Bai Xianzi's clothes flew into Yanran's arms and into the Qiankun bag.
"Keep it in mind."
Yanran's tears flowed out again.
The six people stood blankly for a moment, then flew out of the cave and scattered on three sides of the cave's stone platform. They pinched their fingers and chanted the incantation, and the storm suddenly rose. On the top of the mountain, there were dense clouds covering dozens of miles in radius. The mountain top, which was already setting sun and still had golden light, was now as dark as a dark night.
The six people stretched out their palms together, and the thunder of clouds and water in their palms exploded frequently, hitting the stone platform. Under the lightning and thunder, the stone platform was neatly split from the mountain wall. The six people desperately used the art of controlling objects to lift the huge stone in the air. With a roar, the door of the cave was tightly blocked.
Only one immortal pine remains on the stone wall, swaying in the violent wind and rain. It seems to tell the stories that have happened here for hundreds of years.
The six of them faced the sealed cave, with golden swords under their feet, standing blankly in mid-air, while the heavy rain and tears fell down.
After a while, the rain gradually stopped. In the sky, there are ten miles of dark clouds that have not dispersed yet.
"Hey, let's go." Qing Yi patted Yuan Zhen on the shoulder.
The six men wielded their swords through layers of dark clouds and rose into the strong wind three thousand feet above. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the golden sword gleamed and flew toward the east.
…
In the Wushan cave, a woman in white heard thunder rumbling outside the cave. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, her clothes were wet with tears:
I have been alone for a hundred years, praying for my teacher to return.
We met by chance three years ago and cheered with me.
Farewell now, where will we see you again?
…
The six people stood on the golden sword, at the three thousand-gang wind level, galloping toward the east wind. Not a word was spoken.
The 800-mile Wushan Mountains flew to the eastern edge of the mountains in less than half an hour. The six people slowly slowed down, hovered high in the sky, and looked back at the Wushan mountains, which were already covered in dusk. After this farewell, I don’t know when I can come back.
After flying for half an hour, everyone gradually got rid of the sadness of parting. At this time, when there is You, the setting sun has completely returned to the mountain, and even the last trace of light between heaven and earth has disappeared.
It was almost coming, but it was already the winter moon, and the wind was biting at an altitude of 3,000 feet. In the end, it was too cold, so everyone could only lower the altitude. After falling again and again, through the thin clouds under their feet, everyone saw a wide river running east to west. There was a big city on the south side of the river. The night lights were already on, and there were as many people as ants on the streets. It looks very lively.
"Secretary uncles, why don't we go down and look for some food?"
It was Yanran, a foodie, who suggested it first.
The six people have lived in Wushan Cave for three years. Except for occasionally going out of the cave to go to the mortal market to exchange some items and have a good meal, Fairy Bai usually asks everyone to step up their cultivation. This time, I haven’t been out of the cave for nearly half a year.
Although the fairy's vermilion wine continuously replenished the six people's true energy, after all, they had not eaten the fireworks of the world for so long, and seeing the big city, everyone's appetite was aroused again. Yanran's suggestion naturally fell into everyone's wish.
So everyone found a secluded place, landed quietly, and put the golden swords into their Qiankun bags. Heading towards the official road.
It’s been a long time since I’ve walked like this. After three years in Wushan Cave, everyone is no longer what they used to be. Even when walking on the ground, it feels as if there is no dust on your feet and you move forward lightly.
After burning incense, everyone came to the big city. Looking up, I saw three Chinese characters: "Jiangzhou County".
The six of them looked at me and I looked at you, laughing. Passers-by along the way didn’t know why these people were laughing, so they kept turning back. Only the six of them knew that the original seven-day journey actually took them three years!
Anyway, go in and take a look.
Jiangzhou County is one of the thirty-six counties of the Daxia Dynasty. Like Chuyue County, the county also has hundreds of lakes and thousands of islands, and countless fertile fields. It is one of the granaries of Daxia.
Jiangzhou County was established on the south bank of Xiajiang River. Even though the Jin Dynasty was eyeing the north bank of the Xia River, the river was wide and the Xia Dynasty was heavily stationed, so it did not pose a threat to Jiangzhou County.
The Xiajiang River here is two miles at its narrowest point and eight miles at its widest point. There is Xingzhou Island on the eight-mile-wide river. Xingzhou Island is more than twenty miles long from east to west and about four miles at its widest point from north to south. It is formed by the alluvial sediment of Xiajiang River over thousands of years.
During the Han Dynasty, the world was unified. Xingzhou Island has fertile land and is a land for farming. After the Han Dynasty fell apart and the Jin Dynasty and the Xia Dynasty divided the river to rule, the Xia Dynasty occupied Xingzhou Island and stationed 8,000 navy troops to guard it. There must be more than a hundred ships here. On the south bank of the Xia River, another five thousand naval troops were stationed. Under such heavy guarding by two layers of troops, the disintegrated Jin Dynasty did not dare to take the initiative to attack Daxia. Therefore, the people in Jiangzhou County live and work in peace and contentment, do not close their homes at night, and do not pick up lost items on the road.
Jiangzhou County was established as a county in the Han Dynasty, and the Xia Dynasty also followed the old system without any changes. Only about half of the land in Jiangbei was lost. Even so, Jiangzhou County's rice production can account for 10% of the entire Daxia.
According to records in Daxia Chronicle, Jiangzhou County is about twelve miles long from east to west and ten miles wide from north to south. The city has a population of 130,000.
Everyone walked into the majestic and wide city gate. Although it was already the cold winter months, there was still an endless stream of pedestrians on the street. Maybe it's almost the twelfth lunar month, and farmers have nothing to do but prepare New Year's goods. Therefore, there are many more merchants traveling from north to south than usual.
On both sides of the street, there are many inns and restaurants, and there is an endless stream of small merchants and hawkers selling goods along the street. The six people were dazzled.
They were not too hungry, after all, the six of them had just drank Zhuqing Wine half an hour ago, and their powerful true energy was directly replenished to everyone through the sea of grains. The six of them walked east and west, lingering in the temple.
Tired of walking on Liuren Street, he turned into a small alley and saw a small stall selling fried fish, so he stepped forward to buy a few skewers. The fried fish are small, about three inches long, and there are five fish in a bunch. It tastes crispy and delicious. The fish bones are very thin. After frying, there is no need to remove the bones and they can be eaten directly.
The six of them walked while eating, and before they knew it, they walked out of the alley and onto the street. Not long after, a majestic wooden pavilion stood in front of us.
This wooden building is about seventeen or eighty feet high, covered with golden colored glaze, with five-story cornices and a six-story pavilion. The flying eaves are like cranes, spreading their wings to fly. The lights inside the pavilion are brightly lit. Under the highest eaves, there are three characters: "Jiangzhou Tower".
"Let's go up and have a look." Elder Qingyi shouted as he became interested.
The six people climbed up the stairs, walked about ten or so steps, and entered the main hall on the first floor.
"Hey, six guests, what do you want to eat?" The clever waiter saw five men and one woman, an unusual visitor, and hurriedly ran over to the counter and asked enthusiastically.
"What are the delicious ones?"
Yuan Luo asked excitedly. Now that the master has spoken, it will be easier.
Yanran glared at Senior Brother Yuan Luo with her apricot eyes, and Yuan Luo laughed.
"My dear guest, you have come to the right place. We are the most famous Jiangzhou Building in Jiangzhou County, known as the No. 1 Building in Daxia."
"The first floor of Daxia?" The six people looked strange. They could be considered the first floor of the mortal world at most.
"Jiangzhou Tower, you can lean on the railing and admire the rolling river in the Great Summer. This tower is a must-visit place for literati from ancient to modern times. There are countless things mentioned in the couplets and quatrains."
"Here, what you taste is not only the delicacies of the river view, but also the feelings of family and country, and your ambitions."
The waiter kept talking, making the six people confused.
"Okay, just follow the waiter and let's go to the sixth floor to enjoy the scenery."
Elder Qingyi took the initiative to speak, but the five of them had nothing to say. Then walk along the wooden ladder to the sixth floor.
The waiter quickly brought out Wulijie steamed pork with rice noodles, Xiajiang fish, beggar's chicken, and a dyeing furnace, which contained the meat of three animals and was already filled with thick soup. There are also some beancurd soup, fried dough sticks, and side dishes.
The people who were not hungry at first started eating with their index fingers when they saw these delicacies.
"Six guests, don't you want some wine? We have Jiangzhou's fine wine 'Daohua Niang'."
The waiter lost no time in recommending drinks to everyone.
"Waiter, serve the wine!"
Yuan Zhen, who was still feeling uncomfortable, heard from the waiter that there was wine, so he wanted to drink to relieve his sorrow.
"Drink less."
Qingxuan saw this and wanted to refuse, but stopped. He just patted Yuan Zhen's right arm.
Yuan Zhen said nothing and just ate his food. When a large jar of rice flower stuffing was served, he opened the seal and filled it for six people. He picked up a bowl and drank it all in one gulp. Pour another bowl and drink it all in one gulp, finishing three bowls in a row.
Immortal wine and mortal wine are mixed together, plus I feel depressed. After Yuan Zhen finished three bowls of wine, he threw his head back on the back of the wooden chair and fell asleep.
