Chapter 525: Ask the Immortal for Healing
When Xue Shao left, the Kudi clan sent them all the way, weeping all the way, until they reached the entrance of the village and were about to turn to the official road, she was still crying.
Xue Shao and Yuenu had no choice but to stop and comfort her.
"That old fox is actually playing with the slave family like this!" Kudi couldn't stop crying, "I was so frightened that I didn't notice it for a while, and I just threw the copper coin out." Later, I found out that it was a wrong coin - the words Kaiyuan Tongbao were printed on both sides! …… Woooooo Old fox! That cunning old fox! ”
Xue Shao was also speechless. Unexpectedly, Pei Xingjian would deceive on such a major event...... What an old fox, old fox!
"Actually, I know that even if I didn't throw copper coins, my husband would climb to fight this battle even if he climbed. Even if it's Xue Gongzi, you may not be able to really stop it. "Not a day has been a day in these months when he has been happy, and he dreams of his robes and his army. If God is really so cruel and wants to take him away, then it is better to let him have the last wish of his life...... Whining! However, I really can't bear to let him drag such a sick body on an expedition! Could it be that someone really asked someone to carry him on a horse? In case of...... I mean, what if he doesn't come back? ”
This question made Xue Shao very difficult, as if no one could give any guarantee except for King Yama.
Yue Nu hurriedly took over and said, "Don't worry, madam, when the son returns to Chang'an, I will go to ask the divine doctor Sun Zhenren." He will definitely be able to rejuvenate and cure Pei Gong! ”
"But Sun Zhenren has been a dragon for more than ten years, where can I find it?" Kudi said worriedly.
Xue Shao thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, madam, I have my own way." As long as Sun Zhenren is still alive, I will definitely be able to invite him. Moreover, even if Sun Zhenren is already immortal, I will invite Sun Zhenren's heirs; No matter how bad it is, I'm going to get the best imperial doctor! ”
"Good, good! Good! Kudi was grateful and said three good words in a row, and was about to kneel down for Xue Shao on the spot, but was stopped by Xue Shao.
The two persuaded Kudi for a while, but finally let her wipe away her tears and go home to take care of Pei Xingjian.
"Yuenu, let's not go back to Chang'an first."
"Childe is going to Zhongnan Mountain, Xuanyun Temple?"
Xue Shao's eyes couldn't help but light up, yo drink, grow wise!
The moon slave wiped his nose and smiled, "Childe, then let's go quickly!" Hurry overnight, with the horsepower of a good horse, you may be able to climb Zhongnan Mountain at sunrise tomorrow! “
"Let's go! Pei Gong's illness should not be delayed for a moment! ”
The two returned to the county seat to change their horses and galloped all the way to Zhongnan Mountain. At this time, there were no street lights on the official roads, and there were no searchlights on the horses, so it was extremely difficult to walk at night. Especially in the area of the foothills of Zhongnan Mountain, it is even more difficult to dew tree branches and hurt people on cold nights.
When Xue Shao and Yuenu reached the top of the mountain at dawn, they found that their clothes were torn in many places, dust and dew and sweat stains were wrapped together, and their hair had been knotted.
"Childe, let's find a place to freshen up first, shall we?" Yue Nu reminded, "If the son sees Xuanyunzi with this respect, I'm afraid it will be ......."
"I'm here to do something, not to go on a blind date." Xue Shao said lightly, "Let's go quickly, time is pressing!" ”
"Oh......" Yue Nu responded, obediently took the horse and followed behind Xue Shao, and walked together in the cloud sea fairyland in the mountain behind Xuanyun Temple.
According to Xuanyunzi's habits, at this time, he usually sits in meditation in the sea of clouds in the back mountain, and breathes and breathes. So Xue Shao and Yuenu didn't go to Xuanyun Temple to ask for a meeting first, but came here to try their luck first.
Xue Shao couldn't help but stopped in front of Zhang Yao's grave.
Last year's new grave was covered with a shallow layer of withered grass, and a few green shoots of the new year grew. The tombstones are very clean, and apparently people come to clean them from time to time. There is also a wreath made of wild flowers in front of the monument, which is very fresh.
Xue Shao bent down and picked up the garland, feeling very strange. Because according to the customs of the Tang people, incense, candles and fruits must be used to commemorate the dead, rather than sending flowers, let alone garlands.
"This must have been sent by Xuan Yunzi!" Yuenu said.
Xue Shao was curious, "How can you see it?" ”
"Because only Xuanyunzi has such poetry and painting feelings." Yuenu said, "I have been with her for a while, and I realized that she was cold on the outside, but she was very gentle and affectionate on the inside. She used to gather some wild flowers and make a wreath to wear on my head. She said that women should wear flowers, and garlands are still worthy of beauty! ”
Xue Shao blinked in surprise, he didn't expect her to be a monk, and she was quite romantic!
Later, the two walked into the sea of clouds.
As a result, Xuan Yunzi didn't see it, but Xue Shao saw a "half-cooked" person.
Wu Youxu!
Xue Shao had seen him twice when he was married, and they didn't talk much to each other except for politeness. The only thing I know is that Wu Youxu is different from other martial arts nephews, and he has no interest in being an official at all. He has been obsessed with Taoism since he was a child, and he became a monk at an early age. After the queen of heaven gained power, he did not rely on the power of the queen of heaven to make a living in the officialdom like his other brothers of the same clan, but still had no desire to wear a Taoist robe, and made a living by selling hexagrams in Chang'an. Unless he was called by the queen or other brothers reluctantly invited him, he rarely interacted with people of his own kind. More often, Wu Youxu is nested in the famous mountains and rivers to cultivate the Tao.
Wu Youxu was also surprised to see Xue Shao, and took the initiative to greet Xue Shao.
"Why is Wu Zhenren here?" Xue Shao looked Wu Youxu up and down, he was in his twenties but very steady and idle, and he did have the chic demeanor of a monk who was idle and wild.
"Zhongnan Baoshan is full of aura, and the poor road is often cultivated here." Wu Youxu smiled and said to Xue Shao, "Did Childe come to find my junior sister Xuanyunzi?" ”
Xue Shao nodded, "Is she there?" ”
"Unfortunately, Senior Sister Xuanyunzi was invited by his senior brother Tiantai Baiyunzi, and just returned to Songshan Shimen together yesterday." Wu Youxu replied, "The Second Saint is about to arrive at Songshan, and as the master of Pan Tianshi, they should go back in advance to prepare. Childe doesn't know? ”
Xue Shao slapped his brain, he really cared about it, I actually forgot this layer!
"Looking at the childe's expression, it seems that there is something urgent?" Wu Youxu asked, "I don't know the poor way, can I help one or two?" ”
Xue Shao thought about it, Wu Youxu can also be regarded as the "peer" of Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, and it should be right to ask him!
So he said: "There is indeed something in the next place, I want to inquire about the real people of Wuzhen." ”
"Childe, please speak." Wu Youxu smiled, not flattered or surprised.
Xue Shao asked, "I wonder if Wu Zhenren ever knew the whereabouts of Taibai Yixian and Sun Zhenren?" ”
"Yes." Wu Youxu replied very simply, "Sun Zhenren, he lives in seclusion on the Doumu Peak of Taibai Mountain. It's been ten years now, and I haven't come down the mountain. ”
Xue Shao was unexpectedly surprised, "Really? ”
"A poor monk, why bother to deceive the son?" Wu Youxu said with a smile, "A few days ago, Poor Dao went to visit Sun Zhenren with Senior Sister Xuanyunzi and Senior Brother Baiyunzi on Tiantai to listen to his teachings. The three of us stayed there for about ten days before we came down the mountain. Sun Zhenren is more than 100 years old, with a childish face, full of fairy wind bones, and he is really a real immortal in the world! ”
Xue Shao became more and more pleasantly surprised, "You all know Sun Zhenren?" ”
"Yes." Wu Youxu nodded and smiled, "Not only do I know, Senior Sister Xuanyunzi was also a disciple of Sun Zhenren, and she was brought up by Sun Zhenren since she was a child. It's just that ten years ago, Sun Zhenren took Xuanyunzi to Songshan and met Pan Tianshi. I don't know how, Xuanyunzi left Sun Zhenren from then on and became the master of Pan Tianshi. ”
"There's even this layer in there!" Xue Shao was surprised, "No wonder Xuan Yunzi is proficient in medical skills, it turns out that she is still Sun Zhenren's descendant disciple!" ”
"Yes, yes!" Wu Youxu smiled, "The area of Taibai Mountain is vast, and the mountain road of Dou Mu is even more tortuous and difficult. Childe wants to see Sun Zhenren, and Poor Dao is willing to serve Childe and lead the way! ”
"That's the best! Xue Shao bowed his hand, "Thank you Wuzhen!" ”
"It is natural for monks to give convenience to others." Wu Youxu raised the Buddha dust with a smile, "Without further ado, let's go quickly!" ”
Xue Shao was slightly stunned, "Why didn't Wu Zhenren ask, what did I do with Sun Zhenren?" ”
"Childe must have asked Sun Zhenren to heal his seriously ill loved ones, right?" Wu Youxu said, "If it weren't for that, Gongzi wouldn't be in a hurry covered in smoke and dust, and there seemed to be an anxious look between his eyebrows." ”
"Wu Zhenren, you really have a pair of eyes like a torch!" Xue Shao praised repeatedly.
Wu Youxu smiled slightly, "Childe, please!" ”
"Real person, please get on the horse! I'll ride with my entourage! ”
The three of them walked together, and they were simple all the way. Except for a short rest at a post station in the middle of the road, there was no pause.
After noon the next day, Wu Youxu finally took Xue Shao to climb Taibai Mountain and Doumu Peak.
Xue Shao was extremely happy, fortunately there was Wu Youxu to lead the way. Otherwise, even if you know Sun Simiao's residence, just walking up the mountain by yourself, such a tortuous and complicated mountain road, I am afraid it will be difficult to find the path without wandering around the mountain for three or five days.
Wu Youxu's expression was elegant and he was silent, and he rarely had any conversations with Xue Shao along the way. After such a hard journey, he did not confide in him that he was tired or unwilling, and he has always been very dedicated and trying.
Finally about to climb the Doumu Peak, the three of them were already in a body of snow and clouds, the temperature was low, but the three of them had already come out of the sweat.
The moon accumulates in June on Taibai Mountain, which is a strange scene in Guanzhong.
In front of a hand-dug stone road ladder, Wu Youxu stopped and said, "Childe, the poor road can only send you here." There are about three or five miles of mountain road up this stone staircase, and you will arrive at the ice lake Xianzhu where Sun Zhenren lives in seclusion. There is only a small lake of clear water made of ice and snow and a Taoist house, which Childe will surely recognize. ”
"Won't Wu Zhenren go up with me and visit Sun Zhenren by the way?" Xue Shao asked.
Wu Youxu smiled slightly, "Sun Zhenren has no desires and no desires in his life, he will only help the world, and no matter how noble or low, Sun Zhenren is regarded as one, and the whole world admires Sun Zhenren from the emperor to Buyi, and there are countless people who want to visit him." But after all, Sun Zhenren is more than 100 years old and unbearable, and in recent years, if there is no major event of life and death, Sun Zhenren generally does not see vulgar guests. If everyone in the world is like a poor road and comes to the door to bother with nothing to do, it really shouldn't be. ”
"Wu Zhenren is right." Xue Shao bowed his hand, "Xue Shao, thank you for your hard work and hard work to lead and send each other off!" Such a great kindness, Xue Shao is unforgettable! ”
"Childe doesn't need to say much." Wu Youxu returned the salute, "Saving people is like fighting fire, son, please climb the mountain!" ”
"Thank you! - Farewell! ”
