There were a lot of words, a jar of wine, the vegetables were fragrant and the rice was soft, the five people talked well, the wine was good, and the food was full.
Three women, Cui Yingying, A Xing and A Zhu, put on their cloaks, held them in hand and saluted, before getting up and leaving the table to go west.
Bai Yutian saw Taoist Wushan put down his tea cup, picked up the bag beside him, and asked, "Taoist Master, where do you want to go?"
Wushan Taoist stood up and replied casually: "The mountain people are just idle, there is a lot of excitement there and I want to go there."
Bai Yutian smiled and said: "That's a good relationship! Let's go for a walk in the northwest."
Wushan Taoist smiled and replied: "I heard that Jiang Yulang, the owner of Zhengyi Villa, has been posting hero posts and wants to hold a martial arts conference to discuss a plan to wipe out the scum in the martial arts world and to elect a martial arts leader. If you go to the northwest, don't miss this grand martial arts gathering. , I am still looking forward to showing off my skills, asking for a martial arts leader, and taking advantage of the situation to realize my long-cherished wish and unify the world!"
Bai Yutian smiled and said: "The Taoist priest has extraordinary knowledge. If he is elected as the leader of the martial arts alliance, he will be a blessing to the martial arts colleagues. However, there are still more than a month until the martial arts conference is held. If you wait from now on, the longer you wait, the more boring you will be. Wouldn’t it be a boring life? It’s better to go to the northwest for a walk first.”
Wushan Taoist glanced at Cui Yingying and the other three women, and saw that the three pairs of eyes under the white cloak showed no hostility. He replied softly: "There is no ready-made gold, silver, or copper in the Shanren's bag. Traveling in the rivers and lakes depends on helping people interpret the signatures." Fortune telling will take care of food, drink and accommodation. If you go with me, your journey will be slow and you won’t know when you will reach a familiar place. It’s better not to go with me.”
Bai Yutian smiled and said: "Taoist Priest, since I dare to invite you, I have to take charge of food, drink and living."
Wushan Taoist said: "If there is too much nonsense on the road, don't bother the mountain people."
Bai Yutian stood up and replied with a smile: "The Taoist Master is willing to give me a favor, but the juniors are afraid of not being able to listen to the teachings. How can I complain that they talk too much." He stretched out his hand to the side of the road and said cheerfully: "Please!"
Taoist Wushan smiled happily and looked towards the west.
Five people and one horse walked westward. Along the way, apart from drinking tea, hunting, and boarding, there were only gossips floating on their steps. We left Kaifeng, passed through Shangdu, and stopped in Luoyang. First, the three women wanted to have a good time and buy some women's products. Second, there was a heavy rain. I didn't know when it would stop. We stayed there during the day. Entered the inn.
Cui Yingying took her two junior sisters out for shopping, while Bai Yutian was alone in the wing with nothing to do, thinking of passing the time with Taoist Wushan with words, so he went looking for her. When I arrived at the door of Taoist Wushan's room, I saw Taoist Wushan meditating on the bed to recuperate his energy. I didn't want to disturb him, so he turned around and left.
Taoist Wushan opened his eyes and said, "Is something wrong?"
Bai Yutian turned around and replied with a smile: "It's nothing, I'm just bored by myself."
Taoist Wushan got out of bed, sat down at the table in the room, poured two cups of tea, and said, "Then come in and let it go."
Bai Yutian smiled slightly, sat over, and saluted the Wushan Taoist with tea.
Wushan Taoist drank tea and said: "I stayed here all the way and heard loud noises in your room every night. Do you want to have a baby and make a meal?"
Bai Yutian's face turned red and he said with a smile, "You heard all this."
Taoist Wushan smiled and said, "It's okay for young people to be interested in this, but have you thought about it?"
Bai Yutian asked: "What have you thought about?"
Wushan Taoist said displeasedly: "Of course I want to live with her for the rest of my life."
Bai Yutian smiled and replied: "Taoist Master, do you need to say this? I want to live with her for the rest of my life."
Taoist Wushan said: "But she is not an ordinary woman. Although she is extremely beautiful, her life experience is complicated..." He hesitated to speak.
Bai Yutian smiled and said: "Taoist Master, the one I want to marry is Cui Yingying, not her mother's White Lotus Sect, it doesn't matter."
Wushan Taoist said: "But the White Lotus Sect is located in the Song Dynasty, but it helps the Xixia people to cause trouble in the border areas and assists Zhou to commit evil. As far as the Song Dynasty is concerned, whether it is the court or the people in the world, they want to get rid of them as soon as possible. You don't want to do it now. , I'm afraid that if I'm not careful in the future, I won't be able to get a wife, and I will get involved in it, losing all my fame and fortune, not being a human being inside and outside, and losing everything."
Seeing the seriousness of what Wushan Taoist said, Bai Yutian was very puzzled and asked, "Taoist Master, why did you say this?"
Wushan Taoist asked: "Are you patriotic?"
Bai Yutian smiled and replied: "I am of Han descent, born in the Song Dynasty and raised in the Song Dynasty. Even if I am not patriotic, I will not be an enemy of the Song Dynasty."
Taoist Wushan drank the tea in one gulp and said: "But Cui Yingying is the daughter of Dong Xiaowan, the leader of the White Lotus Sect. The White Lotus Sect has helped the Qiang people deal with the Song Dynasty and disrupted the northwest frontier in recent years. They are the enemies of the Song Dynasty. When the time comes, others will sing national songs. Dayi, would you choose an enemy's daughter as your wife, or would you accept the moral kidnapping of others and choose national justice as your enemy?"
Bai Yutian smiled and said: "Taoist Master, I am a mortal. As long as Yingying is not an enemy of the Song Dynasty, I don't care how much evil others give me. Besides, if there is no small love in my heart, I can't have great love in my heart." It is a tree without roots and water without a source. Even if you have the obsession to work for the sake of the nation and risk your own life, it is just deceiving the world and stealing the name, and it is of no use to me."
Taoist Wushan smiled and said, "That's very good!"
Bai Yutian said: "What's good?"
Taoist Wushan smiled and said: "Well, of course you have a heart that is willing to devote yourself to love. I stayed at the border for some time and heard or saw some things that I shouldn't have heard or wanted to see. , every time I think about it, I feel that it shouldn’t be done.”
Seeing Wushan Taoist's bitter look on his face, Bai Yutian felt very uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask: "Taoist Master, what is so inappropriate?"
Wushan Taoist poured a cup of tea and drank it, then said slowly: "On the northwest border, the soldiers and horses of the Xia Kingdom crossed the border and invaded. It can be called the 'Grass-killing Valley'. They robbed the local people and livestock and burned down the houses. They did all kinds of evil. The soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty crossed the border. Fighting in the border is called "fighting captives", but the equipment in the Xia realm is very strict. When the officers and soldiers enter the border, they gain little and many are trapped. In order to seek credit, they all kill the old and the weak to increase their ranks. Above the border, Most of them were the people of the Song Dynasty who were captured by the Xia Kingdom and abandoned in a foreign land. They wanted to return to the embrace of the Song Dynasty, but were killed by the soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty on the border. Many of the survivors had experienced such life and death, and had no sympathy for the Xia Kingdom anymore. Instead, he wanted to take revenge on Song Jun." After a moment, he sighed coldly: "Hey, you are so ashamed!"
Bai Yutian said: "I am a great soldier of the Song Dynasty. If I don't take back my compatriots, how can I do such an unconscionable thing? It's really heartbreaking!"
Wushan Taoist saw the pain on Bai Yutian's face, and said happily: "Innocent survivors have been treated like this, let alone the White Lotus Sect who helped Xia Kingdom cause trouble in the border areas. In the future, some people will be satisfied for their own interests and do whatever they want. Massacre is nothing unusual. You have to think clearly."
Bai Yutian said: "Thank you, Taoist Master. But there is nothing to think about. Although it is said that only a country can have a family, but how can a country be without a family? A small love preserves a great love, and small things accumulate into rivers and seas. Family and country stand side by side. Even if you can’t do anything about it, still yearn for it.”
Taoist Wushan picked up the teapot, filled two cups, touched one with Bai Yutian, and said happily: "Then the more noise you two make at night, the stronger your affection, the better you will have your own child sooner."
Bai Yutian smiled lightly and said: "Taoist Master, you are a cultivator, how can you say such unreasonable words? For a kind-hearted woman, this is moral kidnapping and is not allowed."
Wushan Taoist chuckled, drank the tea, and said, "Don't you think so? If Cui Yingying is a kind woman, once she is pregnant with your child, she will solidify her desire to marry and obey her husband. In the future, as long as she is If you treat her sincerely, she will be of the same mind as you and think about you in everything."
Bai Yutian said: "Taoist Master, I really don't think so. I just like her so much that I can't control myself every time I see her."
Taoist Wushan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you think so, just do it."
Bai Yutian said: "Then in order to get rid of such evil thoughts, I must respect her like a god in the future."
Wushan Taoist said: "You child, if you respect her like a god, you are not loving her, but harming her."
Bai Yutian was puzzled. He looked at Taoist Wushan and asked, "Taoist Master, how come I respect her and endanger her?"
Taoist Wushan shook his head and said: "Dong Xiaowan is her mother, and you are her lover. In her heart, they are evenly matched, and leaning on either side is not the best choice. If you want her to favor you and leave the White Lotus Sect, do you need to add some chips? Ah! For a kind woman, the best bargaining chip is to have your child in her belly. Which woman in the world doesn’t want her child to have a good future."
Bai Yutian drank the tea, calmed down for a moment, and said, "Taoist Priest, if I did what you said, wouldn't I be coercing her into submission? This is the behavior a sincere husband should do. intolerable."
Wushan Taoist sighed slightly and said confidently: "Coercion is enough, as long as it is not harming her. How many people in the world will do anything to get everything they want, even if they wrap beautiful jade with blood and water No matter what it takes. If you can't accompany her to the outside of the Great Wall and live a life of despair, then you should drag her out of the White Lotus Sect, otherwise you will never have a happy life."
Bai Yutian heard it and felt that it made sense, and said: "Taoist Master, should I really do this? But I really don't want to do this."
Taoist Wushan smiled and said: "Not only do you have to do this, but you also have to do it silently so that she doesn't notice and prefers you willingly."
Bai Yutian said: "In this way, in front of her, I am no longer a gentleman."
Wushan Taoist saw Bai Yutian's reluctance and said with relief: "The stars in the sky are bright and shining, always bright and always peaceful. A gentleman, for most people, can be met but not sought, and there is no need to be entangled. As a person, Husband, if you can make the one you love shine forever like the stars in the sky, and be happy both physically and mentally throughout your life, then you will be better than a gentleman even if you are not a gentleman."
Bai Yutian sighed and said: "Taoist Master, then I will no longer be a gentleman in this matter. Don't look down on me."
Taoist Wushan said with a smile: "A righteous man goes through fire and water when someone is in need, let alone such a good deed that benefits himself and others! God didn't give me a chance to be a villain, how could I look down on someone like you who has the opportunity to do something like this?" A gentleman to a villain.”
The two of them hummed and laughed, and drank the tea. Although the tea was bitter, it was also fragrant and delicious, and they couldn't bear to put it down.
