I have been idle in the mountains for less than half a month, and it is the New Year in the world in a blink of an eye, the weather is sunny these days, Duanhua can't stay still, and often carries Yin Yao down the mountain to mess around.
On the night of the New Year, Master specially took us to the small town below the mountain to eat dumplings, and we must eat dumplings in the New Year in the north, but unfortunately I can't eat mortal food, otherwise I must eat two large plates.
Master likes Yin Yao very much, he said that this child is sensible and pleasing to others, Duanhua and I also like him, since there is one more Yin Yao in Yunrong Mountain, the years in the mountains are no longer as boring as before. Once we were sitting in the bamboo hut drinking tea and chatting, and Yin Yao was playing in the snow outside the house, and when I saw the master, I smiled when I saw Yin Yao, and my heart moved, and I said to him, "Master, why don't you keep Yin Yao as an apprentice?"
Duanhua also echoed: "That's good, I will be a senior brother in the future, Xiao Yaozi is a junior brother, my name is Duanhua, and my senior sister is called Shaohua, so Xiao Yaozi's name should be Yaohua." ”
But the master shook his head and refused to allow it, saying only that he had no intention of accepting disciples now, so let's not mention this matter again.
Duanhua and I were very disappointed, but we also knew that Master had his own reasons for acting, so we didn't mention it again.
On the first day of the new year, it snowed heavily, and goose feathers were sprinkled and rolled with the mountain wind. Yin Yao is a little meaty, he can't go out in such weather, Duanhua hung a thick curtain on the door, added a layer of window paper to the window, and pasted it tightly, and put a charcoal basin in the house, burning the charcoal fire vigorously, and letting Yin Yao sit on the bed and play with mutton bones.
I opened the curtain from the outside and entered the house, and the wind outside the house blew the school through the door, and when I met the heat in the house, it turned into water.
"Duanhua, someone from Cuifeng Lake invited Master to drink wedding wine, Master didn't want to go, let me ask if you want to go to the banquet on his behalf. ”
"Okay, where's the invitation?"
I handed him the invitation, and Yin Yao said, "I'll go too." ”
Duanhua grabbed the mutton bones on the bed and said, "I'll take you when you can grab five mutton bones in one hand." After saying that, he went to bid farewell to the master and went to the banquet.
Yin Yao didn't know that Duanhua was teasing him, and kept trying to stuff the mutton bone in his hand, he stuffed it, and suddenly cried. I held him in my arms and asked him if he didn't want Duanhua to go, he nodded, shook his head again, and said, "I don't want him to go, but it's not because he's crying." ”
"Why then?" I think the child is really interesting, little man, playing and playing, I don't know which one goes to his heart, he can be happy for a long time, if it touches his heart, he opens his mouth and cries.
He said, "I miss my brother." He sat up from my arms and said, "I remember that my brother and my mother were with me when it snowed last year, but then my mother died and my brother left, and I lived in the mountains and I don't remember the way home." ”
I wiped his tears and said, "Your brother is not leaving, he is waiting for you in Kyoto." ”
He asked, "Why didn't my brother come to live with us in the mountains?"
"Your brother wants to take the test for fame, and when he becomes a big official in the future, he will take Yin Yao over and live in a big house. ”
Yin Yao was nurtured by his father since he was a child, and he knew what it meant to be famous and a big official, so he said very sensibly: "My brother wants to be a big official, I don't want him to make trouble for him." ”
I said, "If you really miss him, I'll take you to him." ”
"Really?" his eyes lit up immediately.
I picked him up from the bed and said, "Let's go, let's go and explain to Master and then we can go down the mountain." ”
The master was very happy, he himself was bored in the mountains, and he wanted to go out for a walk.
I made a cloak from the fire fox skin given by Shangyang Zhenjun and draped it over Yin Yao to keep out the cold. We went down the mountain and went straight to Zhangfu, but when we arrived at Zhangfu, we heard that Yin Shitong had already joined the sect of immortal cultivators, and returned to Qingyun Sect on the octagonal peak of the Wangling Mountain Range in the southwest with Jingpeng Zhenren. Since I have gone out of the mountain to look for someone, I can't go in vain, so I took Yin Yao to the southwest again.
We flew through the clouds along the way, stopping only once, and the next morning, before dawn, we arrived at the Wangling Mountains. At that time, the homes of the people living in the Wangling Mountains were still closed, so I found a breakfast stall and sat on the bench with the sleeping Yin Yao in my arms.
Because it was too early, the food at the breakfast stall was not ready, and the boss saw that it was not easy for me to hurry, so he asked me to sit by the fire and drink a bowl of hot water.
I asked the boss the location of the Octagonal Peak, and almost everyone here knew the Octagonal Peak Qingyun Sect, so I had to ask questions. Octagonal Peak is not far from here, and it takes about half a day to walk the mountain road. It's too early, I plan to warm up at noon before leaving, and I also take Yin Yao to feel the customs of the southwest region.
As soon as noon passed, I took Yin Yao to the mountain. The Qingyun Sect is quite prestigious in the southwest, and the road up the mountain is wider than the ordinary mountain road, and halfway up the mountain, there are bluestone slab steps that can accommodate two carriages placed side by side to lead to the top of the mountain.
As soon as I stepped on the first step, I felt a wave of mana like water. I know that this is an enchantment that ordinary human cultivation gates often set up at the mountain gate, and this enchantment will not hurt people, but it is just to remind outsiders that this is a place for cultivating immortals, and those who have nothing to do should not enter.
I didn't drive the clouds along the way for fear of accidentally touching some enchantment seal and violating other people's taboos, at this time I had already entered the scope of Qingyun Sect, and after that layer of enchantment, I didn't have any worries, picked up Yin Yao, who was wrapped in a fire fox skin, and flew directly towards the mountain gate.
Before I reached the mountain gate, a few sword-wielding disciples appeared and stopped me and asked me who I was and what was the matter.
I put down Yin Yao and said, "Lao, please inform your faction Yin Shitong, Shaohua and Yin Yao are coming to him." ”
The two Qingyun Sect disciples glanced at each other, and one of them said, "There is no disciple named Yin Shitong in the sect, but the girl is in the wrong place?"
I think that Yin Shitong had just entered the sect, and probably many people didn't know him yet, so he asked again: "Then may I ask if the six nephews of your sect Jingpeng Zhenren have ever returned to the mountain?"
"Returned, does the girl recognize Uncle Jingpeng?" the sword-wielding disciple asked curiously.
"On the one hand, please also inform on behalf of you, just say that Shaohua came to visit. "It seems that this Jingpeng has a very high rank in the Qingyun Sect.
When they heard that I knew Jingpeng, they didn't dare to slack off, one entered the door to report, and the other led Yin Yao and me to the door to rest and wait for a while.
Qingyun Sect is quite famous in the world, it is said that there are 3,000 disciples in the sect, and there are three Zhenshan patriarchs in the sect, all of whom are about to cultivate the power of the immortal body. The founding patriarch of Qingyun Sect fell thousands of years ago, leaving behind two peerless treasures, one is his natal magic weapon Luotang Qin, and the other is his mount, the ancient divine beast Poor Strange Beast's Neidan. Qingyun Sect has not fallen down for thousands of years, and these two peerless treasures alone have played a large part of the role.
It is worthy of being a big sect, the single mountain gate is built magnificently, in my impression, this simple and huge white marble mountain gate is more magnificent than the thirteen zhang high vermilion lacquer gold nail palace gate of the imperial palace.
Yin Yao's little man looked up at the top of the high door, and was so shocked that he forgot to walk. I funnily pinched his face and said, "What's the matter?"
He pointed to the relief on the door and asked me what it was, looking scared.
I took a closer look, and there was a bronze bell-eyed bull-nosed divine beast carved on the door, and the disciple who led us to walk in front said: "That is the poor strange beast of the ancestor master, when the ancestor fell in the body, the poor strange beast was loyal to the master, self-destructed and cultivated, spit out the inner dan, turned the body into this stone gate, and swore to protect the Qingyun Sect for the ancestor master." ”
Yin Yao asked, "Sister, why is he still alive and living in a stone?"
I said, "The beast also knows loyalty, and it will only feel honored to live in a stone for its master, and will not think about other matters." ”
"Oh, it's like when we come thousands of miles to find our brother, we only rejoice that we are about to meet, and we don't think about the long distance. ”
I was immediately impressed by Yin Yao, a little child, with such understanding, he can really be called a prodigy.
"Yes, Yin Yao is very smart. I boasted. In fact, if you think about it carefully, Yin Yao has stayed by Master's side for more than a few months, and he is very incomparable in food, clothing, and knowledge, and it is natural for him to be so smart.
After waiting for a moment, I saw the two of them hurrying towards this side, and I remember that the person who came was the young monk with a high nose bridge I knew in Kyoto, his name was Lu Tu. As soon as he saw me, he saluted and said, "Miss Shaohua, forgive me, we didn't know you were coming, and we were slacking off, please forgive me." ”
"There is no slack. I heard that Yin Shitong worshiped the Qingyun Sect and came to see him, but what about the others?"
"Senior Brother Yin was taken in by Uncle Jingqing, and now he is in retreat, so it is inconvenient to interrupt, and unfortunately he can't come to see the girl. ”
I looked at Yin Yao, and he looked lost. Lu Tu said again: "Uncle Jingpeng was very happy to hear that you came, he said that he was rescued by the girl that day, but he did not thank you in person, and he will definitely make up for it today." It's just that his demonic energy has not completely disappeared, and his movement is inconvenient, so he asked Miss Shaohua to go over and talk about it. ”
I want to come here, so let's stay here for a few days, one is to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and the other is that Yin Yao doesn't want to leave now, Yin Shitong may not be out of the customs for a long time, Yin Yao wants to wait here for a while.
On the way to see Jingpeng, Lu Tu told me about Yin Shitong, saying that after I left, Yin Shitong encountered an incident, which was related to the ** and darkness of today's court, and this matter hit Yin Shitong very hard, he locked himself in the house and thought about it all night, and on the second day, he knelt in front of Jingqing's real person and begged Jingqing to accept him as an apprentice.
I recalled that Yin Shitong once told me that he didn't like officialdom, and that he only studied at the expectation of his father, and I knew that he had no intention of pursuing a career in public affairs, and I was not very surprised that he abandoned literature and martial arts and entered the cultivation of the sect, so I didn't ask too much. I thought that Yin Shitong chose this path very well, he was already chivalrous and tender, and it was in line with his heart to choose to practice all the way. In the future, if he succeeds in his cultivation, I will also have one more friend in the Six Realms.
Yin Yao didn't understand and asked, "Isn't my brother a big official?"
"No, in the future, your brother will be a monk, and he can fly in the sky like me. I said.
Yin Yao didn't think it was good to fly, he was worried about another reason. He said: "Dad said that he should let his brother study hard and be a good official in the future, but he is no longer an official, isn't it against my father's last wish?"
