38. Good karma
The old Taoist priest at the head was full of white hair, his face was covered with furrows, and there were large and small age spots on his temples and cheekbones. When he saw Sun Yufeng, he hurriedly pounced, grabbed Sun Yufeng's arms tightly, and a pair of cloudy eyes almost came to Sun Yufeng's face, and after looking at it for a long time, he still couldn't believe it, and said tentatively: "Are you really Senior Brother Zhendan?" ”
Sun Yufeng let him catch and look at it, and only then did he smile and say, "You still remember me." ”
He Shouyang burst into tears: "Senior brother, you have gained the Tao, and you don't see old at all." ”
Sun Yufeng touched his face: "I'm already a lot older." ”
He Shouyang helped Sun Yufeng and just cried: "I hate that my Dao heart was not strong back then, and I missed the great opportunity." ”
Sun Yufeng smiled, helped him get up, and said, "I went up the mountain this time, first, to see your old friend, and second, I brought the juniors out of the door and wanted to spend two nights." ”
He Shouyang nodded while crying, and beckoned to the disciples around him: "Clean up a courtyard for Sun Zhenren, don't let people make noise about his purity." The disciple hurriedly ran away.
Sun Yufeng looked at the room full of people, all of whom were He Shouyang's disciples and grandchildren, and said with a smile: "You are also a person with a big business now." ”
He Shouyang sobbed like a child, and said, "No matter how big the family business is, can it be compared with the immortal family?" Senior Brother Zhendan, since you are going to stay for two nights, why don't you open the altar in the temple to explain the Tao and end a good fate? ”
Sun Yufeng shook his head slightly: "Shangzhenguan is a place where immortals come out, why am I embarrassed to ascend here?" But I brought the good karma, so I can probably keep it. ”
He Shouyang asked, "Where is the good fate?" ”
A smile appeared on Sun Yufeng's face: "Now I am probably climbing trees in the forest in the back mountain." ”
……
When Sun Yufeng saw his old friend, Xu Xiaole was lying on a branch. Pipsqueak sat on his back, curious and scared. Even in the monkey group, a little monkey cub as big as Pippi is held by his mother and will not ask him to crawl and run around on his own.
Xu Xiaole is also a big boy, and he doesn't have a lot of motherhood, so he can't imagine that Pippi might fall from a tree. What's more, he was in a trance at the moment, and he was so intoxicated that he probably didn't even pay attention to the danger of falling from the tree.
What made Xu Xiaole so intoxicated was an immortal outside Sanzhang.
Sister Fairy, to be precise.
A beautiful woman dressed in white like snow sat in the shade of a tree, her fingers gently plucking the strings, making a chaotic sound that Xu Xiaole could not describe. The sound was very strange, neither like "Wow" nor "Hum". Xu Xiaole spent half a column of incense thinking about what onomatopoeia to use to describe this sound.
After half a pillar of incense, Xu Xiaole was brought into a strange world by this strange voice. The world seems to be suddenly enlightened, and he is no longer in the mountains and forests, but as if he is on the slowly flowing river, wearing a coat and a hat, cranking the oars, and the water birds are flying and dancing all over the sky...... Suddenly, Pipsqueak emerges out of the water and catches a large fish - can Pipsqueak swim?
Xu Xiaole finally heard a real "pop" and woke up from the strange picture. As soon as he touched his arms, he found that Pippi was gone, and then moved his shoulders, Pippi on his back was startled, and he grabbed Xu Xiaole's back with a leather. Fortunately, Pippi is still small, and the nails are not sharp enough, just slightly stinging.
Xu Xiaole turned his back and patted Pipi, and said in his heart: Don't make trouble, I don't know if the fairy sister can play the piano anymore.
The fairy sister who played the drum and piano under the tree did not notice that anyone was peeping, and pressed the strings for a while, and then plucked the strings again and began to play.
Xu Xiaole held his chin with one hand and said in his heart: She probably hasn't played this piece well yet, and she has to think about it for a long time every time she plays with it. But the aftermath of this is quite nice......
Xu Xiaole didn't know the beauty of relaxation, and after thinking about it for a while, he listened to the speed of the fairy sister's stroking of the piano gradually getting faster, and a series of urgent sounds popped up. Xu Xiaole didn't know why, but he felt that his heart was beating extremely fast, as if every time the strings vibrate, it hit his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.
After the rapid sound of the piano, the tune was low and calm, and I only heard the fairy sister sing: "The river is surging, the river is turbulent, and there are countless poor sorrows." What to say to break the three springs, what to say to destroy Shaoguang, there are many apricots in the clouds, who knows that the slave family is in autumn? Listen to the cranes in the sky and watch the flowers...... For! ”
Xu Xiaole was already absorbed when he heard this song, and was suddenly awakened by this "ooh", and hurriedly looked over, it turned out that the strings were broken.
The fairy sister looked at the broken strings, sat in a daze for a while, got up and looked around, saw that there was no one around, two lines of tears had flowed down, and she said half-chanting and half-saying: "There are few bosom friends, who listens to the broken strings?" ”
When Xu Xiaole saw it, tears almost fell. He couldn't wait to turn over and jump down immediately, ran to the fairy sister, helped her wipe away her tears, and said to her: "Although I didn't understand, but you have played very well, somehow, listening to you play this piano, I think of my father, brother, and sister-in-law......"
Fortunately, Xu Xiaole also remembered Pippi on his back, and hurriedly turned his hand behind his back and beckoned Pippi to get off his back. When he hugged Pippi and went down from the tree, he saw a white veil flashing in the forest, and the fairy sister didn't know where to go.
Xu Xiaole jumped off the tree and walked to the place where the fairy sister played the piano. It was clearly manipulated, and the ground was level, free of weeds and leaves. The piano table and piano bench are all carved from fine wood, Xu Xiaole tried the weight, and it took two hands to lift a few inches, I am afraid the price is expensive.
The Yaoqin on the piano table is pitch black all over, wrapped in a thick layer of pulp, with a warm luster and ancient meaning. Even if Xu Xiaole doesn't have any knowledge, he knows that it must have been used for a long time, maybe it is the same as the chair at home, it has been passed down from his ancestors.
There was a piano stove in front of the yaoqin, the size of a cup, with a fine incense stick inserted in it, and a few inches had not burned out.
Xu Xiaole pinched the broken string, only to find that it was woven from a few thin strands of silk, no wonder it was so easy to break. He had always been a bold man, but now he hesitated: Can I play it? If the bullet is broken, I don't know if the fairy sister will be sad.
Just as he was hesitating, Xu Xiaole heard footsteps coming, raised his eyes, and a beautiful woman who did not apply powder was standing in front of him, which reminded him of a poem he had memorized:
Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving.
