During the yellow plum season, it rains everywhere, and frogs are everywhere in the grassy ponds.
It is summer now, and the weather in the mountains has become as sudden as the face of my daughter-in-law.
As soon as the sky turned white, the rain began to fall.
The patter of rain turned into denser ripples in the river and thicker mud on the road.
After a while, the sky and the earth were inseparable. The river in the sky fell down, and the river on the ground flowed horizontally. The mountains became a gray and yellow water world.
Mud trail.
Tingwu walked in front to clear the way. The master and the apprentice held an umbrella and exchanged fluent answers.
"There is something with an erect stem, single or branched. It turns yellow-green after drying. It is bitter, pungent, and slightly cold. It can improve eyesight and improve essence, and regulate women's meridians. What is it?"
"Motherwort, grind the juice and take one cup."
"How to prepare [Guatisan] and what effect does it have?"
"Take three grams of melon base and black fermented black bean, mash and sieve each, cook until thin, remove the drizzle, take it warmly, it can reduce phlegm, relieve cough and relieve chest tightness."
"What are the six meridians of the human body?"
"Taiyang, Shaoyang, Yangming, Taiyin, Shaoyin, Jueyin!"
"good."
Yi Ning praised him and tilted the paper umbrella towards Tong Qian. Tong Qian leaned on the handle and tried to knock the umbrella back, but it was of course in vain.
The raindrops dripped on the umbrella, rolled down, fell on Yi Ning's robe, and then gently fell on the soil along the robe, giving back to the world.
As usual, they took the main road and the small road after finding the direction.
Whenever he passed by a small road, Yi Ning would explain various medicinal herbs to his apprentices, and would pick them for the children to taste.
Whenever there is an official road, there will be a dense crowd, and the world of mortals is also a place for teaching.
It's just something strange today,
They walked along the foot of the mountain. It was raining heavily, but there were more and more people.
After continuing to walk for a while, Yi Ning and the others came to the foot of a mountain. There was a stone archway at the foot of the mountain with the inscription "Jue Ding Ling Yun" engraved on it.
The ground in front of the archway is no longer a muddy path, but is instead paved with staggered square bricks. A famous vendor guards the stall and hawks endlessly.
"I sell incense, wax and money paper. I go up the mountain to worship the gods of the Five Mountains. When the incense comes, the gods will appear!"
"Sir, would you like to buy Zhang Ping'an Fu? The one from Shanshen Temple is very effective."
"I'm selling umbrellas~ I'm selling umbrellas~"
"How much does this umbrella cost?"
"Five copper coins!"
"It's too expensive, I won't buy it! ... It's raining so hard, forget it, boss, give it a try."
"Ten copper coins!"
"???"
A man who forgot to bring an umbrella cursed profiteers and wanted to leave, but the rain was too heavy and he had to pay.
Yi Ning whispered what happened to Tong Qian, which made the little girl laugh. Then she licked her fingers and sighed, "It's so expensive."
After all, Tong Qian has only saved a hundred or so copper coins now. He can’t bear to part with it!
"It turns out that this is Xiyue Mountain."
Yi Ning came to a conclusion from people's conversations, and then looked at the top of the cloud, "Since we are here, let's go and have a look."
"Moo." Tingwu looked at the stone steps behind the archway, his eyes widening.
"You lazy cow." Yi Ning scolded with a smile.
"Moo!" Tingwu protested and raised the cow's hoof, indicating that his hoofs were really not suitable for climbing stairs.
Yi Ning had no choice but to ask Ting Wu to wait at the foot of the mountain so as not to hurt anyone.
Then he took Tong Qian and walked towards the archway. Passing by a small stall on the way, the vendor asked if he wanted some fragrant wax, but Yi Ning declined politely.
Tong Qian was puzzled: "Master, why don't you buy some fragrant wax? This is the Xiyue Temple. It sounds so powerful. It would be good to pay my respects and ask for blessings."
"You can just climb the mountain, but you don't need to burn incense. It's not good to get into trouble."
Yi Ning patted the money and started to climb the first step.
Tong Qian held Yi Ning's clothes and followed behind him, muttering: "Why would burning incense and praying cause trouble?"
...
There was a lot of excitement outside the mountain, and there was also a lot of people inside the mountain.
The mountain here really refers to the inside of the mountain.
Under the temple of the mountain god on the top of the mountain, an exquisite palace was built inside the mountain.
The eaves and stone walls are connected, forming the most perfect integration of nature and architecture.
At this time, there was a storage table placed on both sides of the main hall. There were countless delicious wines and delicacies on the table, waiting for guests to taste them.
And these guests are all extraordinary people, including high-level officials of a certain sect, high-ranking officials in the country, and landscape gods of high rank.
They came with only one purpose, to congratulate Xiyue Shanjunlou Yichuan on his success in breaking through the realm and becoming a peak golden elixir monk who is proud of Daqian.
You must know that after the golden elixir comes the Yuanying, and Daqian Ming is just a Yuanying from the National Master.
Seven, seven, forty-nine is considered perfect, and this broken mirror banquet will take forty-nine days to end. Now, half a month has passed, and there is still an endless stream of guests.
A monk wearing a butler's attire stood in the center of the main hall and shouted loudly.
"The elder of Mo Dao Pavilion, Taoist Qingsong, congratulates me with a millennium spiritual grass."
The Thousand-Year Spirit Herb would definitely amaze people in normal times, but recently the guests have heard too many good things, and their aesthetic standards have skyrocketed, so it has not caused any waves.
The Taoist priest who gave the gift also understood this, buried his head, and quickly walked into the temple to avoid being recognized by acquaintances.
He muttered in his heart, who wants to attend this ascension banquet? There are so many people giving gifts, how will the tiger remember who is who later, the gifts are equivalent to free gifts.
But I can’t come. My sect is in the western region of Daqian. How can I not come?
As for why he gave the spiritual grass, everyone knows that Lord Loushan has a weak spot, which is his daughter.
That woman was transformed from the essence of Fushan, and she was born with the beauty of the country and the fragrance of heaven, and she was accompanied by the earthy charm and avenue when she was born.
That day, the top officials of the three religions came together in surprise, but in the end they came in excitement and returned in despair. The specific inside story is unknown.
From then on, the Xiyue Zhengshen often purchased the fairy grass elixir, but how could Lou Yichuan solve the problem that even the masters of the three religions had given up on? The matter just dragged on.
At this time,
The housekeeper received another letter from his servant, his eyes lit up, and he shouted.
"The Empress Liu Jiangyan, the Goddess of the Blue Floating River, would like to congratulate you with a Qiqiao Mingming Dan."
As he shouted, the guests all looked at the cool woman sitting on the futon in the corner of the main hall.
"Palace Master Liu is really generous."
"I wonder where your Majesty got this thing."
"This gift, Mr. Loushan will also remember you a little bit."
Liu Jiangyan listened to the compliments of the monks around him and raised his delicate lips slightly, trying to be polite.
The butler at the door said again: "It means the mountain god of Yunshan Mountain, and I will give you a bottle of perfume."
The monks around Liu Jiangyan were all shocked when they heard this.
"The mountain gods of Zhiyun Mountain are here!"
"Although the Ningxiang Liquid is not as good as the Qiqiao Tongming Dan, it is still very good."
"Look, Mr. Loushan comes out to greet you personally!"
In the main hall, Mr. Loushan, who has a Chinese character face, was chatting very animatedly with a woman in yellow.
Liu Jiangyan looked at this scene and sighed softly.
In fact, the level of Yunshan Mountain is comparable to that of Bifujiang River, but the gods of mountains and rivers have always been bigger than water.
The treatment of the mountain gods at the same level is obviously much better than that of the water gods, such as now.
She is a top monk in Maiyue, but if she puts her vision into the world of Daqian, what does she mean?
However, after so many years, she has gradually gotten used to it, and this situation is not directed at Liu Jiangyan alone.
Thinking of this, Empress Jiang Shen thought of the white-robed senior again, and she had been thinking about him all the time in the past two years.
Not consulting that senior for advice was the thing she regretted most since she started practicing Taoism.
I don’t know where the white clothes are now?
