Chapter 9: The Master of the Lodge
Uncle Yunmo's cottage is undoubtedly a very unique existence in Penglai. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It has been there for as long as I can remember, and the face of its owner seems to have remained the same for more than ten years, and it has never changed. Master even granted permission to allow other people to approach Xiantan except for our brothers and sisters and her old man.
The man in white with a long figure is the owner of this hut, Uncle Yunmo.
He leisurely fetched water from the wooden bucket in the fairy pond and carried it to the vegetable garden, and then sprinkled a little bit with a scoop on the vegetables. Then he got up and stood in the wind, looking back at me and the blue sky breeze caressing the willows with a slight smile.
He is always so light, light, detached and free. You can never see the thoughts in his heart from his fairy-like face, as if he is so simple, all his thoughts are in the acres of three-point fields in front of him and the chrysanthemums blooming in the fence.
However, the more seemingly simple people are, the more complex they are in fact.
Master said that he was a sinner, a sinner in the whole of Penglai.
"Uncle Shi." Biqiong and I said respectfully.
"You haven't been here in a while." Yun Mo said, squatting down again to pull out a weed in the vegetable garden, as if it was some love in his life, not a soft and earthy land.
His long, jet-black temples almost hung to the ground, beads of sweat were slight, and his side face was tough and handsome.
I was a little amazed, as if for the first time I knew that even men could be so beautiful. I thought, this man, the master may be in love, otherwise why is he a sinner, but let him be idle in this small world, otherwise why the men around her have changed and changed, but he is as generous as ever.
When I was younger, I thought it was imprisonment, but now I feel more and more that it is not a kind of fulfillment and care.
"I heard Mo Liang say that you will go to sea in a few days." Yun Mo walked out of the vegetable garden and walked straight to the hut.
"Hmm."
"Your master really still hates me." He sighed faintly.
The blue dome does not speak.
I was in a fog and didn't know what kind of connection there was between our going to sea and Master's hatred of him.
Their grievances, Penglai no one mentioned. And what kind of involvement between the few of us and this grievance, I can't even know.
It's just about, it's still messy. Otherwise, it has been more than ten years, why has there been no result.
Let's go ahead.
"Uncle Shi, aren't you going to sea? Mo Liang said that the world on the mainland is very ordinary but also very exciting. I said.
I'm very strange, Yun Mo, who is also a former Penglai Immortal Envoy, should not be vague about the route to the sea, and the master has not explicitly forbidden him to go to sea, but why, he is willing to enclose himself in such a place for decades, lonely and barren for years.
Yun Mo shook his head, "I'm a sinner. If I go out of Penglai, your master's grudge should be even deeper. No matter what, the mind is calm, and it's not the same. ”
I nodded understandingly.
Biqiong buried his head and didn't say a word.
He beckoned the two of us to sit down, and after a while, he was busy in an orderly manner, and in a short time he set a jar of aged wine and a few delicate side dishes on the table.
I took a bite of the stir-fried seaweed, which was fragrant and delicious, tender and fragrant, retaining the original flavor of wild vegetables, and adding a little more timeless aftertaste, which was the style of Uncle Yunmo as always.
The blue dome opened the wine jar, and in an instant, the fragrance overflowed and spread out. She didn't speak, but poured herself a bowl of peach blossom stuffed and started drinking.
I inadvertently raised my head and glanced at Yun Mo, his fatherly gaze just removed from Bi Qiong's face and projected onto my face.
I was terrified. I want to get close, I want to dodge, and more often I am in a trance.
"Yunsu, Biqiong, the rivers and lakes are sinister, when you go out, you two sisters must support you well, remember, you must come back alive." Yun Mo said earnestly.
"Uncle Shi, don't worry, with me alive, Yunsu will be fine." When the tears in his eyes disappeared, the blue dome returned to its usual coldness.
My heart is warm and sour.
"You must not be fine. I, Ah Ying, and Mo Liang all hope that you will live well. Yun Mo said.
Biqiong was silent, picked up the bowl and drank the peach blossom brew.
Maybe for Master, Biqiong is just a dispensable existence, not as good as my cloud scenery, not as good as Mo Liang and free, when does Master care about her life or death.
"Biqiong, your mother she's just-"
Yun Mo was only halfway through his words, and was immediately interrupted coldly by Biqiong. "Uncle Shi! I don't have a mother, only a master, only a teacher, only Penglai. ”
Yun Mo then stopped talking.
Penglai people, where did you come from! The so-called truth flashed through my mind and disappeared without a trace just as I was about to touch it.
"Yunsu, you stretch out your hand." He turned to me.
I obediently reached out and he put his index and middle fingers on my wrist to check my pulse. After a moment, his face was full of worry: "I really didn't guess wrong, your master still used her natal Gu."
"Master said that when the matter is done and I come back, he will relieve me of the Gu and return my freedom." I don't think so, as it is.
Yun Mo's indifferent brows furrowed, not rejoicing for me.
Biqiong quickly took a few mouthfuls of vegetables and hurriedly urged: "Yunsu, it's been too long since I came out today." It's time for us to go back. ”
This is also true.
I had to say goodbye to my uncle, and I faintly saw some concern and reluctance in his indifferent eyes.
By saying goodbye, Yun Mo quickly and covertly put a small white mutton fat jade bottle in my hand. Looking at his hurried and mysterious appearance, I guess he didn't want Biqiong to know.
He didn't want Biqiong to know, so I could only hurriedly take it back into my sleeve, secretly wondering in my heart what it was that could make Uncle Shi hide from Biqiong, who was like a conjoined body with me.
This time, Biqiong did not return to the Liuli Palace, but took me back to Bihai Chaosheng again.
Under the twilight veil, the green clothes are flying, and the green silk is fluttering. The back is perfect and poignant.
"Yunsu, I have two things to tell you." She said.
I just said "um" and waited quietly.
"My eyes were originally amber purple in the light." Biqiong said.
I was shocked. This shocked me even more than I heard about how much inhumane training Biqiong had undergone in the Eight Immortals Branch. I thought disobediently, if what Bi Qiong said was the truth, then whether the mother of Bi Qiong in Uncle Shi's mouth today was...
The stakes are so high that I don't dare to think about it. But I couldn't help but think about it.
"I haven't entered the Immortal Gu Hall, I was born like this. Those rumors were just a cover for her to confuse the public. Bidome continued.
The truth of the truth is naked @ naked @ naked all at once surfaced.
I couldn't believe that this was the truth, so I had to perfunctory: "Biqiong, I don't understand what you're talking about." It's getting late, it's time for us to go back. ”
"Yunsu, don't go, listen to me. These things have weighed on my heart for years, and I can't breathe. Blue Dome almost prayed.
She seldom spoke to me so fragile that I could not refuse, so I had to stand behind her, trembling, almost numb, listening.
"Yunsu, you are a clear person, you know what I mean." Blue Dome Road.
In this case, then Biqiong is the daughter of the Penglai Immortal Lord.
I wondered, since Biqiong is the daughter of her master's father, why doesn't she love thousands of brocade clothes and jade food, but has to serve herself every day as an outsider of unknown origin?
"I wasn't born to someone she loved, and I've always been a shame to her." Biqiong seemed to see my doubts.
The wind was so cold that I could barely hear her.
"Why are you telling me this?" I wary.
"You just think I want to get rid of this burden in my heart, and I'm so tired of guarding a secret that tortures you day and night. Only you and Mo Liang are the people I can talk to. "Blue Dome Road.
The sudden temperature of the Dome caught me off guard. I've grown accustomed to her coldness and indifference.
But in my opinion, it's always a good thing.
"I thought you hated me." I said suddenly. It turns out that she is cold, because of her life experience, and her thoughtfulness is half for me - her quiet care is sometimes not for Mo Liang, but also because of my cloud stay.
I was a little flattered by that.
"I don't hate her, I don't hate you, I only hate life." Blue Dome Road.
I patted her on the back and tried to comfort her. But she snorted, retracted into her thorn like a hedgehog, and turned away in dismay.
After returning to the glazed hall to bathe and sleep, when the blue dome retreated and there was no one around, I lay on the beauty couch, looking up at the rows of huge bright night pearls above my head, and for the first time in my life, I had doubts about my life experience.
Since Master would rather let me Yunsu be above my own daughter-in-law, and I am closely related to her grievances with my uncle Yunmo, then, who is my Yunsu.
