In the harsh winter, the cold wind is cold, and the overwhelming goose feather snow falls on this majestic Kunlun.

The heavy snow in the cold winter has a special taste. The goose-feather-like snow fluttered all over the sky, like clusters of snow-white plum blossoms falling from the sky.

Kunlun Mountain Range (Kunlun Mountain), also known as Kunlun Xu, is also known as the First Divine Mountain, the Mountain of Ten Thousand Ancestors, Kunlun Hill or Jade Mountain. It is the backbone of the central Asian mountain system and the western mountain system.

The mountain range starts from the eastern part of the Pamir Plateau in the west, traverses Xinjiang and Tibet, and extends to Qinghai, with a total length of about 2,500 kilometers, an average altitude of 5,500-6,000 meters, a width of 130-200 kilometers, narrow in the west and wide in the east, with a total area of more than 500,000 square kilometers. Mount Kunlun has a prominent position of "the ancestor of ten thousand mountains" in the cultural history of the Chinese nation, and the ancients called Kunlun Mountain the "ancestor of the dragon vein" of China.

Kunlun is also known as Kunlun Void, Dongfang Shuo's "Divine Strange Scripture" said: "Kunlun has a copper pillar, its height into the sky, the so-called heavenly pillar also." Circumference of three thousand miles, the staff is like cutting, there is a house under the copper pillar, and the wall is a hundred zhang. ”

(Han) Dongfang Shuo's "Ten Continents in the Sea": "Kunlun, Shangtong Xuanji (Big Dipper)...... It is a famous mountain on the ether, which is in the five directions, and the town geography is also. No. Heavenly Pillar".

Heavy snow is falling, a white snow is vast, covering the fields and mountains, everywhere is covered in silver, everywhere is jade trees and branches.

Wisps of cooking smoke rise. There is a small village at the foot of the mountain, with about a dozen scattered houses, located at the foot of this big mountain, which is particularly comfortable and peaceful.

In the northwest corner of the village, there is a small courtyard. The courtyard is not large, the houses in the courtyard are neat, the rooms are very tidy, there is a simple bed in the corner of the inner room, and there is only a whitewashed wall at the other end.

The ground is paved with mud bricks and it is really spotless. On the wall, there is a black pen written "Dao" word, "Dao" on both sides of the word is a couplet, the upper one is "pull up the hair bun and hold the dust", the lower one is "free to be a Taoist", and the horizontal batch is "the Tao falls into the dust".

In the next room, there were herbs hanging everywhere, and the light was blocked, and when the herbs dried, they gave off the smell of herbs.

"It's a good way, it's a very good way. The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. The sound coming out of the house sounds very clear-eyed, the words are correct and round, with this deep mountain Daze, in the snow boundless, giving people a special charm.

The owner of this household is surnamed Zhu, and the people in the village call him Mr. Xuan.

Mr. Yu is about 70 years old, and although he has gray hair, he is full of energy and spirits. The hair is pulled up in a bun on the head, a wooden hairpin is inserted horizontally in the hair, and a gray robe is worn on the body, which looks quite like a Taoist priest, giving people the feeling of fairy wind and bones.

Because Mr. Yu knows some medical skills, some people in the village have a headache and brain fever, and they all go to Mr. Yu to see a doctor.

Speaking of Mr. Yu's medical skills, there is really nothing to say, as long as he has seen the patients, as long as the hand is on the pulse, he will know what the cause is. Acupuncture and moxibustion were applied to the sick people, supplemented by traditional Chinese medicine, and Mr. Xuan did not charge money for medical treatment, so the villagers really did not want to go, so they brought him the fruits and vegetables grown in their own fields.

He was quite prestigious in the village, so people called him Mr. Su. Later, people knew that he was originally a Taoist priest, and some people successively called him "Lao Dao".

Although he lives in the village, his ancestral home is not local.

People only remember the plague ten years ago. A sloppy old man came to the village with a child of about seven or eight years old.

At that time, the people in the village had dysentery, and the people in the mountains had very low knowledge of the plague, and they all thought that they had eaten something to spoil their stomachs, but they didn't expect it to be the plague. Later, it was the Taoist who came to the rescue of those who were suffering from dysentery.

The people in the village also knew the Taoist because of this, and also knew that he was a Taoist priest, and the old Taoist had lived in the village since that year.

The child who came with the Taoist was the grandson of the Taoist man, and his name was Kaede, who was picked up by the river of the old Taoist, and there was a maple leaf in the swaddling clothes that wrapped the maple at that time.

Although Kaede is not his own grandson, the old Taoist loves Xiao Kaede very much, and he has been taught by Mr. Kaede himself since he was a child.

A voice came from the room, it was Yu Feng reading the Tao Te Ching.

"Tao Te Ching", the philosophical work of Lao Tzu (Li Er) in the Spring and Autumn Period, also known as "Tao Te Ching", "Lao Tzu", "Five Thousand Words", "Lao Tzu Five Thousand Words", is a work before the separation of the sons of the pre-Qin Dynasty in ancient China, and is an important source of Taoist philosophical thought. The Tao Te Ching is divided into two parts, the first part of the original text is the "Book of Virtues" and the second part is the Book of Truths.

At the age of eight, he began to study the Tao with his grandfather, from the beginning when his grandfather told him about the concept of Tao, his cognition of Tao, and now the beginning of "feeling Tao". Now eighteen-year-old Kaede has memorized the Tao Sutra taught by his grandfather, and his understanding of the Tao has become more profound.

For ten years, he would go to the mountains behind the village every morning to meditate and practice Tuna.

"Boast of breathing, spitting out the old and accepting the new. "Breathing is to exhale turbid qi and incorporate the pure qi needed by the human body, so that it can help the human body cultivate internal qi.

Grandpa once said: "It's not that there is no aura in the world, but that the Dharma has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is not the original law." Some Taoist scriptures have been circulated for thousands of years, some have been lost, and some have been deleted, so that "there is no one left".

Sitting on the edge of the cliff, the momentum was as powerful as swallowing clouds and spitting out fog between breaths and breaths. The exhaled breath rolled back and entered through his nostrils like Bai Lian, and with the continuous breathing, he felt that the blood flowing in his body was rushing like a big river, and the blood vessels became a lot wider after continuous washing.

Yu Feng knew in his heart that since he followed his grandfather to practice the Taoist scriptures, his body had changed significantly. Eyesight and hearing are ten times better than ordinary people, and in the final analysis, these are the benefits of practicing the Taoist scriptures. Breath breathing size week is finished.

Kaede got up and shook the snow off his clothes, and said to himself, "This snow is really big!"

The plan of the day lies in the morning, and the good time cannot be delayed. Kaede stepped on the thick snow and returned. Patted off the snowflakes on his body and walked into the courtyard.

Breakfast, two bowls of porridge and a plate of pickles. There are no special ingredients, the grandparents are quiet and do nothing, just want to be comfortable.

The snow outside the house began to fall lightly, but it did not mean to stop. It was still very cloudy in the sky.

Grandpa is going to see Uncle Liu in the village today, Uncle Liu has been suffering from asthma for many years, and he will relapse at this time of year because of the cold weather. There are several packets of Chinese medicine in the medicine box, which were prepared by grandpa for Uncle Liu.

"Remember to practice, don't be lazy. After speaking, Lao Dao picked up the medicine box and went out with his legs raised.
